      Hello,

      I'm trying to round an edge around a curved path. I've tried two different methods to achieve this:

      1. Drawing a quarter circle + follow me (first picture below)

      2. Using push-pull to extrude the raise section, then using RoundEdge by Bezier.

      In both cases, the result ends in the second image below, where SU just can't handle rounding an edge along a curved path.

      Any help / suggestions to resolve this would be much appreciated.

      Thanks.

        If your model is pretty small SU can have trouble drawing the faces. If you scale your model up x10, round the edges, then scale down x0.1 that should fix the issue.
