Fillet tangential to surface and touching a curve

Hi,

could someone advise me how to create a fillet (with defined radius) that would be tangential to a surface and touching a curve?

I have tried to do offset of the surface and pipe of curve and form their intersection do second pipe. Second pipe should be tangential to surface and touching a curve. But intersection of surface and second pipe is discrete or it is created by small ellipses.

The result should look like in the picture.

Thanks in advance,
Roman

Hi Dan - there is a test command that does exactly this - testFilletSrfCrv - explode and untrim the surface, delete or hide the existing fillet surface, then run this command - you’ll need to type the whole thing, it will not auto-complete. I used radius 3:

Thanks Pascal, it works exactly I wanted :slight_smile:

Hi Dan,

although the fillet does not have a invariant radius, could you give me idea how you did it?

Thanks.
