Description
In the flat layout window, the label controls and the print button are in the left panel. The part display frame where the 2D, unbent model of the part is shown and where the labels will be applied is in the center of the window. There are two images of the same part shown - the left part will be labeled with the rotations, angles, and CLR while the right part will be labeled with the length values. In the right panel, a small 3D model of the bent part is shown along with the part's name, die, material, and date of creation.
