Fillets are producing incorrect results depending on the order of selection

Anonymous · ‎01-31-2021

As the title suggests, fillets act incorrectly (ignore edges) depending on essentially the order of operations when the filleted edges are of different lengths. Minor issue, but still wanted to report it.

Embedding screencasts along with attached files (or in general) still doesn't work properly, so here's a link:

If you place a space after the last Details entry before pasting your Screencast HTML code, it works just about every time.

I believe what is causing your issue is the fact the fillet radius you are using causing some of the fillets to overlap, which in turn removes some of the selected edges. If you do your fillet with a radius, say 1.5mm, the problem will not occur.

I absolutely agree, but I can't accept "just change your design to conform to the software's bugs/limitations" as an answer. I hope you can understand my point of view. This is definitely not a major issue, it's just a minor inconvenience. But that's exactly what drives people to other software solutions.

I'll try your tip about the screencasts at some point, thanks for sharing.
