By simply selecting tear lines, SOLIDWORKS 2016 now allows Relief Cuts to be introduced into the flat pattern alleviating the excessive stress around the outer edge of the label.
The flat label surface now looks ok to be passed on to manufacturing.
After isolating the label surface and hiding any unwanted geometry, you can simply choose to pass the label via dxf or dwg.
You have the choice to either select geometry to export, or just select a current view to gather everything visible on screen.
These new capabilities take the guesswork out of creating and validating flattened shapes of even the most complex geometry.
