How to force the case of the bend table direction strings to all be in uppercase instead of mixed case e,g "
DOWN" instead of "
Down", "
UP" instead of "
Up"?
Solution
The text used for the bend directions is controlled in the Solid Edge Options -> Annotation settings.
Under the Sheet Metal Flat section are defined the "Bend up" and "Bend down" strings. By default these are set to mixed case:

Change these strings to the desired case e.g. "UP", "DOWN":
![](/kbassets/PL8002419/3580a9f9e37bbd77ba2ffb82d2f8fa64928eb1218efb826f2248fa883b5f.png)
This setting is a per file setting so to ensure that all new files always use the desired case, make this change in your template files.
