7.6.2.10.6.5. Blends whose edges meet with different size each

[Note]Note

If intersecting edges shall have different sizes, then this cannot be accomplished by the only use of the Blend feature, but only by a combination of Base extrude (sketch) and Blend.

Example:

  1. The following figure shows that a fillet has already been created by sketch (green marking).

  2. On the 3D model, mark other edges to be rounded (red marking) and in the context menu, call the command New Chamfer/Fillet....

  3. Result:

    In the 3D History, you can see which mode has been used for what.

    Larger fillet created by sketch

    Larger fillet created by sketch

    Smaller fillet created by Blend

    Smaller fillet created by Blend

[Note]Note

Chamfers/fillets, which follow only one axis, should be created by sketch. Chamfers/fillets, which go along at several axes should be created by the Blend feature. The latter ones could not be directly integrated into the sketch by geometrical reasons. An extrude can only model a chamfer/fillet in direction of extrusion.

Valid for fillets and chamfers.
