cannot get bend table k factor

I have been trying to get the k factor used by a sheet metal feature that utilizes a gauge table.  It looks like solidworks provides a few different ways to do this but none of them seem to work.  I think the root of the problem is that solidworks is not applying the k factor in my gauge table to the sheet metal feature, instead falling back on the default.  Anyone have any ideas what's going on?

Here's what my gauge table looks like: (target bend and k-factor circled in red)

 

Here's my code (runs after a rebuild)

Function PartDoc_onIdleNotify() As Integer

          Dim swConfigMgr As ConfigurationManager
        Dim swConfig As Configuration
        Dim OrigConfig As String
        Dim v As Object
        Dim i As Integer
        Dim flatPatternFeature As IFeature = Nothing
        Dim swFeatMgr As IFeatureManager

        Dim swFeat As IFeature
        Dim gageTablePath As String
        Dim BaseFlangeFeat As IBaseFlangeFeatureData
        Dim swSheetMetal As SheetMetalFeatureData
        Dim custBendAll As CustomBendAllowance

        Dim thickness As String
        Dim myDimension As Object

        If onIdleFlag = False Then
            onIdleFlag = True
            RemoveHandler iSwApp.OnIdleNotify, AddressOf PartDoc_onIdleNotify
            Exit Function
        End If

        flatPatternFeature = iPart.FeatureByName("Flat-Pattern1")

        If flatPatternFeature IsNot Nothing Then

            'get the base flange feature
            swFeat = iPart.FeatureByName("Base-Flange1")
            If swFeat IsNot Nothing Then
                'get all the data for the base flange feature
                BaseFlangeFeat = swFeat.GetDefinition
                gageTablePath = BaseFlangeFeat.GaugeTablePath
                thickness = BaseFlangeFeat.ThicknessTableName
                thickness = Replace(thickness, "Gauge ", "", )
                thickness = Left(thickness, 2)
                thickness = Trim(thickness)
                'write out the gage number
                myDimension = iPart.Parameter("GaugeNumber@Sketch1")
                myDimension.systemvalue = Convert.ToDouble(thickness) / 1000
                swFeat = Nothing
            End If

            swFeat = iPart.FeatureByName("Sheet-Metal1")
            If swFeat IsNot Nothing Then
                swSheetMetal = swFeat.GetDefinition
                myDimension = iPart.Parameter("kfactor@Sketch1")
                custBendAll = swSheetMetal.GetCustomBendAllowance
                'myDimension.SystemValue = custBendAll.KFactor / 1000
            End If


            'collect the config names, loop through them and unsuppress/suppress the flat pattern
            swConfigMgr = iPart.ConfigurationManager
            swFeatMgr = iPart.FeatureManager
            OrigConfig = swConfigMgr.ActiveConfiguration.Name
            v = iPart.GetConfigurationNames

            rebuildFlag = False

            For i = 0 To UBound(v)
                swConfig = iPart.GetConfigurationByName(v(i))
                If flatPatternFeature.IsSuppressed() Then
                    flatPatternFeature.SetSuppression(2)
                    flatPatternFeature.SetSuppression(0)
                End If
            Next

            'iPart.ShowConfiguration2(OrigConfig)
            iPart.ForceRebuild()
            rebuildFlag = True
        End If

end function

When I do a watch on swSheetMetal I get this:

Any thoughts?
