For the critical filets, is not more tricky to draw by "hand" the profil and sweep it along curves wished? :)

Hi Petr, yes this is a problem.

The way I have been planning to solve it is with:

4) Perform the fillet calculation in the background and automatically cancel it and start a new calculation if a new radius has been entered.

Which has the only problem that it is quite difficult to achieve... :) However, I have been planning on this since there really needs to be a way to cancel long operations in general anyway even separate from this particular issue.

I've tried really hard not to have things like "preview" buttons, I really prefer to just do the preview automatically.

Hi Pilou, it is certainly possible to generate some fillets in this way, but you'll also have quite a bit of work to do to fill in corners and handle intersections between the different fillets.

But that's actually one of the nice things about a "hybrid" modeling system like MoI (where you can work on solids or also on individual surfaces and join them together later) - that you can get in there and construct a fillet manually in some cases where an automatic solver isn't able to handle it.

It is not exactly easy to do though.
