chamfer
Cut a straight transitional edge along a tagged path.
Chamfer is similar in function and use to a fillet, except a fillet will blend the transition along an edge, rather than cut a sharp, straight transitional edge.
chamfer(
solid: Solid,
length: number,
tags: [EdgeReference],
tag?: TagDeclarator,
): Solid
Arguments
Name | Type | Description | Required |
---|---|---|---|
solid | Solid | The solid whose edges should be chamfered | Yes |
length | number | The length of the chamfer | Yes |
tags | [EdgeReference] | The paths you want to chamfer | Yes |
tag | TagDeclarator | Create a new tag which refers to this chamfer | No |
