Hi Steve - I see that inside ‘SelectEdges’ the radius indicators are incorrect. But once SelectEdges is done, they revert, here, to the correct numbers - do you see that?

Yes, that is the display bug stated in step 2. What happens at step 6 is worse.
Thanks, yes, I see these bugs, and I’ll get them on the pile… what I am not clear about is why you need this edge selection workflow - I may not have a clear enough picture of what you need to achieve, but we should get it so that if the UI does not accommodate it, we can tune that up. What I don’t get for now is the SelectEdges> Deselect>Reselect the same edge - is that just to indicate the bugs you mentioned, or is this what you actually need to do to get the result you want?
thanks,

If I cannot fillet all the edges that I want in one take, I sometimes fillet each chain of tangent edges. The extended fillet made by V5 at a corner lends itself to other filleting at that corner. Using the SetAll option in FilletEdge, I can change the size of all the fillets in the chain, entering the new value only once, until I find a value that works.
Now in V6, since I want to avoid the cap surface, I will try to apply the fillets to more than one chain of edges. While looking for a way to modify the fillet size of each chains separately while still in the FilletEdge command, I discovered these bugs.
Modifying the fillets via the handles may end up being the best method since the edges don’t have to be reselected. It would be even better if the value of a constant radius need only be entered once.
Hi Steve - in V6 you can select multiple handles (shift select) and enter the desired radius for all of these at once - does that help? It is a little hard to see that multiple handles are selected but windowing or shift-click works.

Yes, it does help. Thank you.
