Meshing ... tests and wishes

Hi Michael,

here an other issue or example (mesh#8), where could be possible an optimization. I create this object at MoI, it's a first try for a railway sleeper for a visualisation of a train station.
My screenshot shows the unfilleted object that is good meshed and the filleted version with two issues - a large kink, also visible at smaller mesh angles like 16° and missing quads at the big top surface that goes around the sleeper.
It could be nice, if the meshing of the fillet would be determinated by the top surface. But this isn't new, you told me:

"I think it is going to be possible for me to do some work in the future to try and form the initial UV quads of a fillet after the "main" surfaces have been done and in some situations it may be possible for me to make a better initial structure for the fillet that matches an adjacent surface, but probably only when there is a plane to one side of the fillet since matching to pressure from multiple sides of curved surfaces is probably not going to work."

So, maybe this is one more example for a know issue only. But I have the feeling, the big kink at 16° should be avoided without additonal adjusting. ;)
