Sheet metal part turns into multiple parts.

I have a simple sheet metal part made of flanges and hems. When I add a certain flange, the hem to which it is added along with the newly added flange suddenly changes into a new part. I cannot see how I can prevent this from happening. Everything should remain one part. Any help will me much appreciated.

    We'd probably have to see the part in order to find out what is going on.

    Check connectors and connections, use Merge or Add functionality:

    In your CAD software, make sure you are adding the flange to the same part file. Sometimes the setup can cause the new features to be treated as separate components.
