fillet	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 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.

fillet(data: FilletData, solid: Solid, tag?: TagDeclarator) -> Solid

Arguments

Name	Type	Description	Required
data	FilletData	Data for fillets.	Yes
solid	Solid	An solid is a collection of extrude surfaces.	Yes
tag	TagDeclarator		No

Returns

Solid - An solid is a collection of extrude surfaces.
