fillet	Function in solid	Blend a transitional edge along a tagged path, smoothing the sharp edge.	manual

Blend a transitional edge along a tagged path, smoothing the sharp edge.

fillet(
  @solid: Solid,
  radius: number(Length),
  tags: [Edge; 1+],
  tolerance?: number(Length),
  tag?: tag,
  strategy?: string,
): Solid

Fillet is similar in function and use to a chamfer, except a chamfer will cut a sharp transition along an edge while fillet will smoothly blend the transition.

Arguments

Name	Type	Description	Required
solid	Solid	The solid whose edges should be filletted	Yes
radius	number(Length)	The radius of the fillet	Yes
tags	[Edge; 1+]	The paths you want to fillet	Yes
tolerance	number(Length)	The tolerance for this fillet	No
tag	tag	Create a new tag which refers to this fillet	No
strategy	string	Which strategy should be used to perform this chamfer?	No

Returns

Solid - A solid is a collection of extrude surfaces.
