Sketcher and making fillets (sort of) |
|
|
While in sketcher Wildfire 2,with intern mangler turned on I'll use
the fillet icon in hopes ( I say this because) 7 out of ten times I'll
get a conic arc, not a true radius.
Anyone know of an option, hidden config , christian/budist/muslim
blessing before filleting to get a true arc, and not one of these
silly RX,RY conics?

Hit the flyout (">") to extend the toolbar. Hold cursor over each button
momentarily. A "clue" will magically appear.

You get 2 options. 1 to create a circular fillet, the other to create
an elliptical fillet, which is what I end up with even tho I use the
circular fillet option. :-(
A new Pro/Bug option maybe?
build M080......

Well, you've got me there. Don't recall ever seeing any references to
either bug or option. To be quite honest I very rarely fillet / round
sketcher entities so maybe ... |

Stu, why not leave the radii out of the sketch and create a radius feature??

When in sketcher go to utilities\ customize screen\ sketcher tools and |
pull out the fillet icon. |

The only thing that I've seen do this is getting the fillet tool and the radius
tool mixed up. But when I consistently pick the fillet tool's radius icon, I click
two adjacent sides and get a TRIMMED fillet. Slick as spit on a brass door knob.
No incidents such as you describe. But, since you're an old pro and wouldn't make
such a mistake, it must be something else going on. Have you checked into this
with PTC tech support?
