Unfillet/Unchamfer in sketches

Unfillet/Unchamfer in sketches

It would be nice to add a feature within sketches that would undo fillets.  When working with a 3D model its very simple to just delete the fillet feature, but when you are in sketches its a little more work.  Typically I delete the fillet then coincident constrain the 2 points left.  Depending on how the sketch is done, deleting the fillet can break constraints and dimensions.  Same goes with chamfers.  Could be added to the fillet drop down window.

Is there a particular reason why you need to fillet or chamfer in the sketch to begin with?

 

Sometimes it may be necessary, but it's usually preferable to avoid using sketch fillets and chamfers as much as possible, and instead use Fillet and Chamfer features.  This problem is a rare occurrence if you build your models that way.

@jtylerbc  The only time I use it is when building surface body models for FEA/Nastran.  I have much better luck building 2D surface body models and applying materials inside Nastran rather than using a solid body assembly.

For sketch Fillet, it's easy to change the radius to ZERO, it will remove the fillet automatically.
