Can i do "round cap" in Rhino?

I have the shape like this and i wanted to cap it with round shape. I’ve tried fillet surface but it only worked on two sides. Is there any way i can do it maybe like the “cap” command or fillet surface on four sides? Thanks

You can use Cap to close the opening, and then FilletEdge or FilletSrf to create fillets. Always start with the largest radius fillets first.

Experiment! Your results don’t have to be what you want the first time. Undo and try again.

Another version of a rounded cap: AngleCap2.3dm (204.9 KB)
BlendSrf between the sides, adjusting the sliders until the shape is as desired.
Create lines for trimming the ends of the blend surface, and Trim the blend surface.
BlendSrf the ends, , adjusting the sliders until the shape is as desired.

Experiment!
