How to create this folding wrap (cardboard) using Sheetmetal

Hi all, I'm new to OnShape and relearning CAD after a very long time, I have been through the sheet metal tutorial and got so far with attempting the task in the link but fail when it comes to trying to create and fold the diagonal creases to try and replicate the FEFCO 0309 style of crease folds (uploaded in the document) If any one has any starting points on this I'm happy to tackle. The sketch shows the 2D of the proposed part.

Thanks in advance
Ian.

    don't think onshape sheet metal can do this because in the corners of your box you will have a complex geometry of surface with double curvature which can't be flattened.

    OK, I wasn't sure, I'll submit a request and see, thanks Ian
