Using Selection Sets for Creating Fillets

You can arrange the inputs for the sides A and B, and the spine to select a specific case. You can assign the selection to the set required for that case.

This task shows you how to:

Use Multiple Surfaces for a Selection Set

You can assign multiple surfaces to a selection set.

Before you begin: Open a 3D Shape containing two sets of neighboring surfaces, and two touching curves running roughly along the intersection of the surface sets.

  1. Click OmniFillet .
    The selector panel opens.
  2. Click Side A and select the surfaces for the first set.
    The surfaces are internally joined and assigned to the selection set.
  3. Do the same for the second set (Side B).
  4. Click Spine and select the two curves.
    The curves are joined as well.
  5. Click OK.
    The fillet is created. Both the Omni Fillet Spine feature and the Join features are added to the tree.

Use an Automatically Created Spine Curve

You can automatically create a spine curve from the intersection of the input surfaces.

Before you begin: Open a 3D Shape containing two intersecting surfaces.

  1. Click OmniFillet .
    The selector panel opens.
  2. Click Side A and select one surface.
  3. Click Side B and select the other surface.
  4. Click AutoSpine.
    The surfaces are internally cut at their intersection. The spine curve is created from this intersection and added to the Spine selection set.
  5. Click OK.
    The fillet is created. Both the Omni Fillet Spine feature and the Cut feature are added to the tree.
