While the default behaviour of ! _VariableFilletSrf (and its counterpart ! _VariableBlendSrf) to extend the resulting surface at either end is usable in rare occasions, in 99% of the cases this is an unwanted outcome that forces the user to spend a lot of time into splitting and shrinking each indiv…

[image] Bobi: “SplitToEnds” option or “Extend” as the same (?) option is named in _filletSrf ? :+1: I would love to see some features that allows to influence the transition between the radii. (plural of radius…) easy to understand: 5 to 10 [Screenshot 2023-04-04 at 23.12.18] now addi…

Got that, thanks. RH-74012 VariableFilletSrf - Extend=Yes/No -Pascal

Thanks for adding this to the pile, @pascal ! I would love to see two separate options like that instead of a common one, probably named “ExtendEnd1” and “ExtendEnd2”. Those should allow change at any time while the command is not completed and the surface is still in a preview. That will let the us…

Many years ago there was a plug-in for 3ds Max called “Power NURBS” that allowed a certain degree of modification of the fillets and blend surfaces via changing “Curvature influence”, “Blending”, “Tangent scale”, “Curvature scale”, etc. Really cool set of tools that were ahead of their time. For ex…

[image] Why does Rhino have lots of issues in filleting complex surfaces while Solidworks usually fillets easily? Would it be possible to add extend NO to Variable fillet/blend/chamfer? Sep 29, 2017… :thinking:

Don’t be surprised, many requests are waiting for more than a decade being put on the pile for “future” release, and still waiting. :slight_smile:

Any news? At least regarding the “Extend: yes/no” function. I found a Topic from over 10 years ago with the same request. :sob:
