Problem with flanges in sheet metal
Nikola_Radosavljevic

Hello, I am having problems with creating this part. It has flanges in opposite direction and I am having problems shaping the corner.
I would like to move this flange face towards the center. The move face tool won't work in that direction, only to the opposite. I also tried to extrude cut but it also doesn't work, it just marks the corner red.
Does anyone know what am I going wrong?

Move face should work. Please see a quick test here: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/a4c976e96a62cbf30a2f00c6/v/19831b40c86ce432feb3170d/e/968981fa8a351e2956a4f2b8
Please file a ticket and share you model with support ( "?" menu "Feedback") so that we could investigate this failure.

It is a good idea to make a version when you find something not working that you want to share with support.5

Before posting the problem I had spent several hours without success, but today the move face command simply worked.
The extrude cut also works on the flange today, but yesterday and the day before it would simply turn red.
I don't know why but it happens sometimes that some tool just don't work for days..
Thank you very much for your answer and for making the test file.
