Full Version: Is this a bug or a feature?

I can't understand why the cut line of the face disappears after the fillet operation.
And the splitting of the edge disappears.

Hi krass, merging of coplanar faces is built into the booleans and fillet is using some of the boolean infrastructure to do its work and so also gets the same processing.

I'll see if I can adjust it not to do that for filleting.

Thanks for the answer!
I'm glad if this helps in some way to improve the program.

...But the effect is quite interesting.

After a few tests, it seemed that having the face trimmed, improved the ability to do the fillet..

I would like to take this opportunity to ask - what exactly does this option do?
I have not found information about it anywhere in the help.

Could you somehow illustrate your idea? This is very interesting

Hi krass,

re:

By default a variable radius fillet will have a type of "ease-in/ease-out" transition between radius values like this:


If you have just 2 stations for the variable radius fillet you can turn on that "Linear blend" option to make it have a direct linear interpolation between the radius values:
