Sketch Break Tool Doesn't Do Anything To A Cirle...

[wcndave]

I have a circle intersecting with some straight lines, and I want to create a sketch fillet between the line and the circle.

Using the fillet tool, I can't select the circle, and previously I have use the break tool to break at the intersections, and then could use it.

However what it's doing now is breaking the line, but not the circle.

Any ideas?

I am using 2.0.8412

works for me.  is everything in the same sketch? is everything on the sketch plane?  can you show what your doing (screen cast or model)?

I could do, I've not done a screencast before, I'd be quicker just uploading a youtube video if that's allowed?

Once you've actually completed the break you show in your screenshot, can you then select the two circle segments independently?

this is how the break operation works

yep-

Thanks both.  For me it's not actually breaking the circle.  I ended up drawing lots of separate arcs from the same centre point.

Having done that, I deleted the shape that had been imported - a smallish STL file, and the break feature started working again... very odd.  Was definitely in sketch mode etc.

If I see it again, I will record a video of it.  Is the screencast software special autodesk software for recording activity in Fusion?

Thanks again!

Hi,

Ah, many thanks for that.  Looks very useful for many things!  I tried it out on one thing that seemed odd (amongst many odd things I encounter in F360).  creating a rectangle with rounded ends resulted in oddness at both ends!

mmm, when I did insert screencast, it's in the edited message, and not in the posted message.  Oh well, back to some real work!  And now it's there...
