Fillets Works Only Sometimes

Post by K0DPW »

Since I'm using Realthunder's development branch, don't know if problems therewith belong in this forum or not. Please direct me to a better forum if one exists.

Using:

OS: Windows 10 Version 2009
Word size of OS: 64-bit
Word size of FreeCAD: 64-bit
Version: 2021.922.24301 +3888 (Git)
Build type: Release
Branch: LinkStage3
Hash: 399863d7e37b354fea6687767605e661beace504
Python version: 3.8.6+
Qt version: 5.15.2
Coin version: 4.0.1
OCC version: 7.5.0
Locale: English/United States (en_US)

See attached images which document the problem, with notes therein should be self-explanatory.

Basically just attempting to add same fillet on two edges, the left hand filet works fine, the right hand fillet previews correctly, but generates error.

They are discussed in the assembly forum.

Thanks all for your responses.

Working with this issue further has revealed that while working with the item the second fillet remains flagged as error,

yet when I close the document, apparently due to FreeCAD checking and re-computing the part prior to closing,

the fillet generating the error is added properly without additional errors,

and when opening the file for subsequent work,

the fillet initially generating an error condition has in fact been performed and it exists just like it is supposed to.

For some reason a fillet rejected at creation time and resulting in the error messages indicated, is OK and added to design without error during the document closure process, and remains thereafter.
