Hello,

I cannot find solid tools the variable radius fillet command in V6. Please advise me as to where this command is and or has become.

Thank you,

Andy

Hi Andy - in the toolbars it is here, in the Surface Tools tab:

and it also cascades from the FilletSurface toolbar on the left:

The command name is VariableFilletSrf

For solids the FilletEdge command allows variable radii.

Any of that help?

Hello Pascal,

Thank you this information does help.

In a video I am watching using V5 in solid tools there appears to be an icon where if you left click you get Variable radius fillet and if you right click you get variable radius blend. So that is what prompted the inquiry.

Mine does not cascade ?

Thank you,

Andy

Hi Andy- that is the FilletEdge button here:

(Again a casdading toolbar - click and hold a moment or click on the little gray triangle to cascade)
And, yes that button also appears in the Solid Tools tab:
