dome in sheet mode

Hello, everyone! I just started working in sheet mode. I would like to know if it is possible to create a dome that can also generate flat shape.
 
bombed cannot develop it, as there is no development of the sphere if not in an approximate way.
the dome is practically like an umbrella, narrower only the ears and the more the dome approaches the semi-spherical shape.
 
Thanks for the answer. I have another question. I saw a guy working with steel plates. he uses autocad and to have flat form of solids export dwg to rhinoceros. with inventor alone is it possible to do this? Yes, in normal mode. . .
 
Yes. as well as in the sheet mode you can have the flat model, you can also have it in the normal modality.
cmq, he works in 3d in autocad, then exits the file in rhinoceros to have the flat model. There is a command that allows you to do it
 
Sorry my question was: as well as in the sheet mode you can have you can have the flat model, can you also have it in the normal modality?
 
from a normal ipt you can switch to the sheet (and vice versa), with the command "sheet converts", if however the object does not always have a constant thickness, which must be equal to the value of the sheet thickness set, will not make you the flat model.
 
the sheet mode is a normal mode, it is only an environment where you have the appropriate commands for the modeling of the sheets.
then, a sheet file or a side file, are the same thing, they are still saved as .ipt.

p.s. for all I know, rhino does not make very precise developments.....
 
I don't know about his precision, but it's convenient. you explain the parts even if they are not open. If not, do you know an alternative to developing flat signature?
