About Behavior Modes

You can define the two types of behavior modes:


  • Length1/Angle

  • Length1/Length2

About Propagation Modes

Two propagation modes are available:

  • Tangency: tangencies are taken into account so as to fillet the entire edge and possible tangent edges.

  • Minimal: edges tangent to selected edges can be taken into account to some extent. The application continues creating the chamfer beyond the selected edge whenever it cannot do otherwise.
