flex circuit bend line error in 3D canvas

Can you have a bend line on a radius show up in the 3D editor? This doesn't seem to work. Any suggestions? Flex circuit needs to bend on radius. Also flex circuit is complex. Any limits on Flex design_outline?

    I don't believe there is any restrictions and its certainly working on www.youtube.com/watch on a radius. Make sure you running the latest version, so 17.2-2016 S055 available from Download Manager or Cadence Online Support. Check the command line for any messages when you add the bend line. If this still doesn't work maybe post the profile and bend locations.

    That's a very small radius (0.3mm in my country) so not sure you would actually see a bend, try increasing the radius to something larger and see if that helps. If it doesn't, as the message says I would the design and steps to Cadence Online Support http://support.cadence.com or your Cadence Channel Partner and let them investigate this further.
