Fillet not creating a smooth round shape

Hello, 

 

I've been having troubles with Inventor 2019 to create fillets on egdes.

This edge is created between 2 faces of 1 body. The vertical face was created with loft feature. the horizontal one is just a simple extrude. 

When trying to create fillets between the 2 faces, this is what happens: 

You can even see the orange line, showing the expected traject, however the fillet seems to follow the shape of the round face which has nothing to do with this feature.

Strange behaviour, and I see this at several locations. 

I've been using Fusion360 for some years now, never had this kind of weird behaviour.

Looks like the fillet is following the vertical loft feature.

Any change you can embed the fillet into your horizontal cross feature sketch?  Instead of creating a fillet as a third feature?

Not really, since this would leave edges on both inside and outside of the structure, I'm sure fusion 360 would not make this error, so I hope something is wrong with the settings I use. Otherwise inventor developers can learn a lot from their young brother - fusion360.

Hi! Please share the file here. If I understood how things worked correctly, I would be surprised that Inventor behaves differently here.

Many thanks!
