would be great to have a separate command “setbackCorner” as well - to allow Workflows that use _filletSrf.
hopefully this will be exposed to Rhinocommon.
@menno you are working on this ? (if not maybe adress the topic to the right person)
nice to see some improvements in the field of fillets
looking forward to see the next improvements. kind regards - tom
I used setback blends in Rhino 7 a few years ago. It was a hidden test command. ! _Testsetbackblendedge
There was a script for Rhino 4, as well. Back in 2012. setbackfillet.zip (1.7 KB)
“Fillet surface corner” is another useful script that lets you fillet a surface edge without the need to use a trimming curve or surface. FIlletSrfCorner.py (9.0 KB)
can we get an distinction between concave and convex fillets?
just found
this fusion 360 video- starting min 6:10
he explains the “ruled” fillet, wich seems to give that kind of control(rounds/fillets)

i think it is not exactly the same- but still interesting-
In fact, what I described above and showed in the picture, is much better and quicker approach than the one used in Fusion 360. There is no need to separate those surfaces prior running the fillet operation, because the “NormalToFace” option (an imaginary option that hopefully will be implemented in future Rhino) selects all edges whose end is adjacent to the selected surface (the yellow top surface). No need to be perfectly normal to the surface. Those edges could be inclined, too. Unless they are tangent to the surface (along the surface).
It’s named RailType:DistBetweenRails have a look at the help: FilletEdge | Rhino 3-D modeling
I’ve to be fair and it works only if there’s enough space but I used it all the time.
it exist from v7: is FaceEdges in the selection option
I know (it’s how I created my bottom example), but I gave those two names for future Rhino Command line options to give them a better distinction when comparing both types in the attached image.
