Creating Corners

Corner lets you create a corner between two curves or between a point and a curve.

This task shows you how to:


Before you begin: Create a 3D shape containing two curves or a point and a curve.

Create a Corner on a Support

You can create a rounded corner of specified radius between two elements on the defined support.

  1. In the Corner Type list, select Corner On Support.
  2. In the Element 1 box, select a curve or a point as first reference element.
  3. In the Element 2 box, select a curve as second reference element.
    The corner will be created between these two references.
  4. In the Support box, select the surface.
    The support can be a surface or a plane.The resulting corner is a curve seen as an arc of circle lying on a support place or surface.
    Important:
    • The reference elements must lie on this support, as well as the center of the circle defining the corner. Moreover, the laid elements must be connected.
    • In a power copy or user feature context, it is advised to evaluate the Support box.
  5. In the Radius box, enter the value or use the arrows to change the value.

    Note: In the case of a curve as Element 1, all corners have the same radius, and closed wires can be selected.

  6. Click OK to create the corner.
