Exclude face from fillet

Fillet the edges of the highlighted boss with different radii without filleting the edges on the selected face.

  1. On the ribbon, click 3D Model tab Plastic Part panel Rule Fillet .
  2. Verify that the Source option indicates Feature, and that the Rule indicates Free Edges. Select the feature, and enter a radius value.
  3. Add another rule to the same rule-based fillet: Source: Feature; Rule: Against Part.
  4. Select the same feature, and enter a radius value. Note that the edges of the planar face get fillets also. The face of the boss is merged with the face of the body.
  5. To prevent the merged faces from being included in the edges selection, click More, and check the Remove Merged Faces option. The preview fillets on the planar face disappear.
  6. Click OK. The Rule-based fillet is complete.
