if inset is not working smoothly, we need to peek at your systeminfo- it may be your graphics card needs a driver update or perhaps an upgrade. inset works nice and smooth here, un less I ask it to inset something crazy complicated, then it take a sec to calculate, then runs pretty smooth. I’m run…

The “dishonest” part is that both rhino and plasticity fail in this case with the basic fillet tools and the corner has to be reworked manually. Rhino isn’t “better” if you have to fix it by hand (as you could in plasticity too).

Well, as I mentioned numerous times before in this topic, I have tried the fillets tools on plenty of 3d models and most of the time Rhino did them correctly, whereas Plasticity failed quite often. As for the “dishonest” part with this particular box example, I have never said that Plasticity is wo…

I think you are absolutely right on the Rhino chamfer

I see these problems all the time. Where I work we use Cimatron, another poor-quality software, just like SolidWorks and others, which produce terrible fillets. What’s worse is that these programs hide the mess under the hood, and then I’m the one who has to waste twice the time fixing everything be…

Here is the same 100 mm box with 40 mm and 35 mm fillets, as well as 30 mm chamfers, that I repeated in Rhino. Using Rhino’s variety of tools makes it possible to achieve what’s not possible in Plasticity in this particular example. Well you say it is “not possible” to achieve the hand-built fill…

@menno you Should take a peek at this-

Forget Plasticity, Alias, ICEM, and Catia - no software features a physical Zebra surface analysis mode (as I sadly found out today after some idiot managed to mangle the left side of my car in slow motion). [IMG_6469]

Seems like you have some surface distorsion there that’s not gonna render well Have you checked the curves? [Screenshot_2026-01-05-18-59-47-69_40deb401b9ffe8e1df2f1cc5ba480b12]

Hope it’s not a hit and run and insurance covers it
