Hello everyone. (sorry if I put 3dexperience as an option, but I don't understand anything about this label thing). I find it more and more difficult to post a question.
I also don't have the possibility to attach an explanatory photo...
So, I'm still on Solidworks 2021.
Question: When I want to do a flexion, I can only do it in the Z axis.
How do you make this deformation in the Y direction?
Thank you.
If you want to use bending on a non-Z axis, you should not use the " Beam " mode, use the Volume Mesh instead.
Otherwise, a new coordinate system (X;Y; Z)
Be careful with gravity (mass), I'm no longer sure that you can modify the axis in its application.

Thank you Maclane.
I finally managed to put an image (the image insert icon didn't appear).
For your explanations, too complicated for me. in general, the official explanations " help Solidworks " are incomprehensible to a non-professional.
So much for me... on the other hand without the image... I had gone to the " Simulation " module of Solidworks because of " Bending " (for me it immediately looks like RDM).
So I'll go back: To achieve your " Bending " on the Y axis, modify the angle values in the " Trihedron " with:
X=0 deg
Y=270 deg
Z=0 edg
Currently your value is exclusively on Z...
This document from our late national @Zozo_mp should help you familiarize yourself with this forum

Wow! It's that we shouldn't bury our @Zozo_mp too quickly... It is just vi... uh... retired... 
I'm joking of course.
That said, it would be good to put this type of document at the top of the Forum.With the one of the charter of " Good behavior and good practices " (huh?, what? ... how does this document not exist!!) 
Done
Thank you Maclane.
I searched a lot for explainer videos without success.
I test as soon as possible.
Good night
Ben des vidéo on en trouve pas mal:
les mots clé « Solidworks Flexion ». (Attention la plupart des video orientent vers la résistance des matériaux…vous vous cherchez la fonction « Flexion » pour une pièce.

et plein d’autre sur ce $%###! de youtube … (j’aime pas youtube)…
That's right. Thank you Maclane.
Have a great week.
Hello
I offer you a tutorial on the bending function that I did a few years ago (pouf pouf pouf)
Kind regards
PS: Hi friends 
Hi @Zozo_mp ... Thanks for sharing.
So we can't seem to get away from 3D design? 
=> Glad you spend time on the Forum. 
What is the status of your " Waterfall without water " project? We are waiting for 3D renderings and photos...
Hi Maclane
I had put it on standby because it was busy elsewhere.
I simplified for the production and I promise I'll get back to you soon.
To pluche
