Hi krass it would probably be better to use a polygon modeling program to construct a faceted shape like this
because they are very focused on manipulating and matching things to make an "all quads" type structure. MoI
does not have that same kind of focus for working with faceted data.
For your particular case here though you can get what you are asking about by initially drawing in a line from
mid point to midpoint like this:
The length of this line is the chamfer distance that you need. When you run Chamfer snap
on to the ends of that line to get a chamfer like this:
That works because the distance you give to the chamfer command is then used to make offset surfaces and
the line that was drawn in was along a surface normal so it measured the needed offset distance.
