Composite Curve : Round / Chamfer Corners

Create a contour from a series of curves/edges.

Add or remove corner radii or add a chamfer at the corners of the composite curve.

Optional Step 1

  1. Add or remove corner radii or add a chamfer at the corners of the composite curve. The following options are available:

    Each option displays a different set of parameters.

    Parameters

    None

    Do not round the corners.

    Add Radius

    Add a radius to each corner of the composite curve. The Global Radius parameter is displayed, enabling you to define a global radius for all the corners.

    To define a different radius to a specific corner(s), pick the appropriate corner(s) and set the radius in the displayed corner flag. For each corner selected, the radius value flag is displayed.

    Remove Radius

    Remove a radius from specific corners of the composite curve. The Smaller Than parameter is displayed, enabling you to remove all radii smaller than the specified value.

    Add Chamfer

    Add a chamfer to each corner of the composite curve. The Global Distance parameter is displayed, enabling you to define a global chamfer for all the corners.

    This distance represents the real (smallest) distance between the original vertex and the chamfer result.

    To define a different chamfer to a specific corner(s), pick the appropriate corner(s) and set the chamfer in the displayed corner flag. For each corner selected, the chamfer value flag is displayed.
