Full round fillet selection

Full round fillet selection

Full round fillet selection

(OP)
I like the results of full round fillet feature. Its like the tri-tangent fillet.

How can I speed up the face selection. Each instance of the fillet feature takes 3 faces (1 per selection box).
I have to move the move a lot (Face, selection box, face, selection box, face & selection box) for each fillet feature.

I wish i was able to select multiple faces :)

well, there always is the TAB key....

...or get creative with a macro.

Hmm... Macro sounds good. Will try to see if it helps, thx.

RE: Full round fillet selection

Check the Right Click icon shown in graphics area it will have a blue arrow.
It should show an image of the mouse like the Green Check OK that's available during feature creation.

These icons are handy if you happen to notice them.
The one for full round fillet will automatically select the next selection box so you don't have to move the mouse much.

You can also save it as a library feature.

I tried the tab key, it doesn't work. Also, when I try selecting it continuously, it wouldn't automatically change focus to the next selection box.

Mike,
Thanks for the right click tip. It does save a lot of time & mouse clicks :)
