Hi all

I would like to know if it is possible to affiliate the fold lines to a layer for example "fold line".

Hello

If it's for a DXF or DWG export, yes it's possible, see here:

Otherwise, if it's for the SolidWorks drawing, I don't know.

Great it works on the parts, I need it on all for the drawings, I'm going to test the same solution for the drawings.

I use a macro to export my unfolded sheets for the laser cutting which goes through a drawing (mandatory to note the thickness and the material...)

So if the goal is to make a DXF or DWG, no need for a SolidWorks drawing.

I need a text in the dxf indicating the cutting info (my cutting software retrieves these given and makes its adjustments accordingly).
