      Did you select the whole model (I mean all edges) or just the two lateral faces?

      Fredo,

      I selected just the two lateral faces. In fact, I tried doing each face separately.

      Clearly, the problem is with me. I'll go back to the drawing, do some clean up, and practice until I get it right.

      In the meantime, I'll use your result to continue with my design.

      Thanks so much!

      I think it will help if you could post the model.

      Fredo,

      I'd be grateful if you'd take a look.

      Thanks,

      Does RoundCorner work on curved edges?

      I've downloaded and installed the plugin. I successfully used it on an 3 inch cube. Everything worked fine, as far as I could tell. And fast (less than a second).

      Then I tried using it on a shape I'm designing - a curved "arm" (like the arm of a chair). It guessed very wrong on the offset, so I manually set it to 1/8". That is, I want to "roundover" the edges of the arm - an 1/8" roundover. (BTW, this is a very typical activity for woodworkers.)

      Well, it started, and ran forever, and after about 10 minutes I cancelled it. The "Processing" statistics in the lower right of the window frame never updated. However, it did leave artifacts (several "softened" line segments).

      I tried Sharp, and 4 segments (instead of the default 6), and working on only a portin of the original shape. Same results.

      Does RoundCorner just NOT work with curved edges?
