Onshape sheet metal construction, extend a sheet edge

Hi,
I've been struggling with a sheet metal design for hours.
I'm designing a sheet metal part that I want to manufacture later. Now I need to extend a sheet edge, and I can't seem to get it right.
I can't extend the sheet edge in one plane using the flange function, as it has to be curved.
Do you have any ideas?

Note that it gave an interference problem when trying to use a move face. 0 deg is not a flange.
Hi,
For this I either use 2 methods
Move Face
Sheetmetal Tab - more powerfull as sketch can define all kinds of shapes
