Hi

This is another request.

it possible to view and export edge softening from MoI?
https://docs.mcneel.com/rhino/8/help/en-us/properties/edgesoftening.htm

This build tool in Rhino is used very often by everyone, and it would be beneficial to have at least this feature in MoI along with the ability to export it. (It probably requires an additional bar density setting for this.)

Hi Yanus3D, that's a polygon mesh tool applied at render time.

So it doesn't really fit in with MOI very well because MOI doesn't have either polygon mesh editing capabilities nor rendering capabilities.

It's intended to use a polygon mesh editing program to handle that type of function, it's not something that I would expect to be handled in MOI.

I use that feature in Rhino for quick rendering as well, it works mostly OK but sometimes it gives some ugly artifacts, that's why for really good results I prefer the new fixed Fillet feature in MoI3D, either ACIS or Solid++.

Cheers,
