improved variable fillets

improved variable fillets

I really want to take this drafted edge

and fillet the two vertical edges with variable radii of "1" / 2 (at the bottom) and "2" / 2 (at the top) to get a perfectly drafted, rounded corner that looks something like this

Unfortunately, (a) I have to manually measure the two edges and enter the values for each of the radii and (b) you might notice there is a weird little flat vertical sliver in between the two fillets despite using the measured values (presumably due to rounding error).

 

This seems like an operation that is probably common enough that it should be baked into F360 (it'd be particularly awesome if it was parametric so if I change the drafting or offset one of the faces, it maintains that perfectly rounded corner).

FYI it's not (just) rounding.

This one was made by copy-pasting «all» (16) decimal places of precision and it still has a sliver (though it's a bit smaller)

I think that the ideal solution is to apply a Full Round fillet, which isn't yet available in Fusion.  This would allow you to select the three bounding faces to be replaced with an appropriately sized 'capping' fillet.

 

Full round fillet is in our backlog, and has a related idea station request here:  https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/ideastation-request-a-feature-or/fullround-fillet/idi-p/5495394

 

Thanks,

Charles

Thank you for your idea, this is getting archived due to lack of votes.  As Charles mentioned there is another idea for a full round fillet that will product the same end result.
