Cad64 Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 If it's not working, Autocad should tell you why. What does it say at the command line when the operation fails? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nekrophobe Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I have a similar problem, and I get no message in the command line. On a similar note, is there a way to control the direction to fillet to? Meaning, which side the arc is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kshotton45 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 The lines should be on the same plane. If not, the command line will report 'lines are non coplanar'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shift1313 Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 what version are you having trouble with. are you performing a fillet on a pline? Since the question was based on fillet and chamfer im assuming you are talking about 3d solids. Usually issues arise when there are problems in the solid. maybe a double edge or some discrepency when two solids are joined. Does it happen to a certain drawing or with every operation? nekrophobe, what do you mean which side to fillet to? do you have an example? You fillet in a corner(internal or external) and the fillet will be centered on that corner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigtaylor777 Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 try using AECFILLET rather than FILLET, worked for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeScott Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Just out of curiosity.. if you press F2 after it "fails".. you still don't see a message? The series of steps to run the command may have changed. I know I used to run into problems where my command line area was too small to see it tell me what I did wrong.

craigtaylor777 Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Im using autocad Architecture 2010. Been puzzled why the chamfer and fillet commands didnt work. noticed they do work with normal lines but not walls. Figgured out the fillet and chamfer command now only works in autocad items, for autocad architecture items walls etc, you need to type in AECFILLET or AECCHAMFER for it to work. If not as much as you try to select a wall, it refuses to select. so in command line it reads: Command: f FILLET Current settings: Mode = TRIM, Radius = 0.00 Select first object or [undo/Polyline/Radius/Trim/Multiple]: Fillet requires 2 lines, arcs, or circles. Hope that helps a little the autocad architecture users.. To solve the problem you need to modify your acad.pgp (there use to be a really good short cut modifer in the express menu) if you use f for fillet. Hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coosbaylumber Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 I noticed that often the symptom in #7 above happens here too, even in the HELP folder it says no. I simply explode the PLINE, then issue the command, and relink the line all together again. Works in versions 10 to 2010 for me. Go on to next situation then. Wm.
