    Fillets round over exterior and interior edges. A concave fillet feature is called a fillet and a convex fillet feature is called a round.

    You can create a fillet on a solid or on a quilted surface.

    You can edit a fillet by right-clicking on it in the browser then selecting Edit Fillet, or by using Press/Pull.

    3. Deselect the Tangent Chain if you do not want tangentially connected edges.
