You can position forming tools on sheet metal using sketch tools.
To position forming tools:

- In the Task Pane, select the Design Library
tab.
- Click
in the title bar to pin the Design Library.
- Browse to forming tools, and select one of the folders.
The contents of the folder are previewed in the lower panel.
- Select a forming tool from the lower panel, drag it to the correct face, and release the pointer.
The forming tool is placed on the face and the Position form feature dialog box appears.
- Use Smart Dimension
, Add Relations 
, or Modify Sketch

In this example, a Midpoint 
relation was added between the construction line and the origin of the forming tool sketch.
