Title: Chamfer-rounded problems. (Fixed)
Post by: steve on July 04, 2012, 03:10:04 am

Hello,

I am seeing a few problems when using the chamfer-rounded. This is the first(will post others when I have more time).

When creating chamfer-rounded on some edges, voidworld attempts to create concave ngons that is cannot correctly handle.
This is a simplistic example that can be correctly fairly easily. But in more complex models, it becomes unusable.
The highlighted polygon shows the resulting problem.

What is your solution suggestion?

Would it be possible for you to add the ability to chamfer-rounded with "chop corner off"?

Can you show me a sample image?

Forgot to add.
Currently to work around the above problem, I add an extra edge loop, then expand the edge selection before adding chamfer-rounded. It is easier to edit that result rather than rebuilding to remove concave n-gons.

What of? A chamfer-rounded with "chop off corner"?

If yes, then here:-

It is not easy. But in this case, you can add two cross edges on the top face before chamfering. Remove the two edges afterwards.

The two problems you state here are all sorted.
