sheet metal question

I have a bracket from a client (bracket-TEST-2) that I tried to replicate in SWX (bracket-TEST-1) and I have trouble with an Edge-Flange. Which parameter controls the way the bend (I don't even know how to call it) in the picture is done?

As far as I can tell, you don't have control of that when adding the tapered flange to the rectangular one, or when using convert to sheet metal. However, if you create the tapered flange first and add the rectangular flange to that, this is controlled with the Auto Relief option in the Sheet Metal folder, or the Custom Relief Type when creating a flange.

Not sure why the difference, perhaps someone else has more insight?
