    Interesting set of limitations. I'm not at all sure what they mean by 'split faces' unless they're talking about what you do to a molded part to allow draft to be applied. I put a 'split' through the part on the inner edge as a workaround.

    I tried mirroring the half part and SWx told me I can't mirror sheet metal features and to mirror the body instead. OK, I tried that it it wouldn't let me pick a face/plane to mirror around. I did the tests in SWx 2016 and the only way I found to could get a valid sheet metal part was to put a slit through the inner edge. I didn't try older versions or SWx 2017. I also didn't try the EAA version, I only have that loaded on my laptop at home and with no SpaceExplorer and no hot key assignments I find it nearly impossible to use. Color me spoiled......
