external vertical edge Break, with 2d Contour

I am looking for a way to break the external edges of a part with a 2d contour, there is a Roll Around corner option, but it doesn't break the edge, just keeps contact. I have read there was no such option, but that post was from 5 years ago.  If there is another way to do this without having to model a fillet or chamfer I'm open to suggestions.

Thank You.

2D contour supports a chamfer offset if you select a chamfer tool.

I meant vertical edges, not horizontal, I need the tool path to cut into the corners and break he vertical edges, I know it is possible in Gibbs, and Mastercam.Screenshot 2025-08-28 124213.png

Hi

You can create a sketch in which you draw such chamfers on a rectangle and indicate it instead of an edge as a reference for machining.

Use the Fillet tool in your Design workspace then use the Silhouette option in your Geometry selection.

There is no auto-chamfer option like MCam.
