 * 1) Select the wall of the SheetMetal object to be embossed
 * 2) Select the back side of the shape defining solid (Remember both the object to be embossed and the shape defining solid must be selected. Activate the multi-select method appropriate for your operating system: /.) [[Image:SheetMetal_Forming-04.png|240px]]
 * 3) Press the  button or use the keyboard shortcut:  then  [[Image:SheetMetal_Forming-05.png|240px]]
 * 4) Fillet the sharp edges:
 * 5) * Flip the bowl and select one or more edges for the smaller inner radii
 * 6) * Press the button [[Image:SheetMetal_Forming-12.png|240px]]  -->  [[Image:SheetMetal_Forming-02.png|240px]]
 * 7) * Flip the bowl again and select one or more edges for the bigger outer radii
 * 8) * Press the button [[Image:SheetMetal_Forming-13.png|240px]]  -->  [[Image:SheetMetal_Forming-01.png|240px]]  Done!
 * 9) Alter orientation and position (should be done before filleting)
 * 10) * Activate the [[Image:SheetMetal_Forming.svg|16px]] WallForming object in the Tree view
 * 11) * Set the value of the property to e.g. 45° [[Image:SheetMetal_Forming-14.png|240px]]
 * 12) * Set the value of the property to e.g. greater than 0 [[Image:SheetMetal_Forming-06.png|240px]] Here it is plain to see that it doesn't make sense to move the embossed geometry outside the selected wall.
 * 13) * Setting the value of the property to e.g. greater than 0 isn't any better: [[Image:SheetMetal_Forming-07.png|240px]] At least the FreeCAD doesn't crash when a part has two bodies...
 * 14) Some hints
 * 15) The height of the defining solid determines the depth of the embossed shape. That means changing the parameter offset, z to alter the depth won't deliver expected results.
 * 16) The embossed geometry is made of a shell object i.e. it has a constant thickness. And so the defining solid has to be offsetable, otherwise the tool will fail to create the emboss.
 * 17) If the outer edges are filleted first it may rip the object into several pieces when the radii are set too large.
