Hi Michael,

Thanks for the vid. Understood on how to make that example cutout with multiple steps. I was more interested in being able to quickly move that edge up or down from a quick one step iterative perspective. "Hmm, too high, too low, ahh just right"...click. Done. Quick work flow. It's a nice feature in Rhino and Fusion 360. I'd just prefer not to the to stop MOI, jump over to Rhino to slide one edge up/down, stop, then jump back over to MOI...if possible.

Understood that MOI is not set up like that. I can dream though! ;)

I was hoping Chamfer 2 Distances would work on that front edge to quickly play with a chamfer angle...but no go there either. It'll only do a 1mm fillet or chamfer...not sure why. Top edges of the rectangle allow for chamfer 2 distances. Is it that the shape has been trimmed already on that lower front edge?

Thx.

Hi Pilou,

That's how I would have done that too. Was hoping for a quicker one-stop-shop method.

Thx for the vid.

Hi mat,

> Is it that the shape has been trimmed already on that lower front edge?

I think it's because this is a more complex area to handle, where the side wall surfaces need to be extended, rather than just having areas trimmed away:


I do hope to be able to improve that in the future but it's going to require a lot of work with integrating a different geometry kernel so I'm not sure when that will happen.

- Michael
