Lesson: Applying a Radius Corner to Two Objects ■ 409
Practice Exercise: Creating Fillets
In this practice exercise, you use the Fillet command
on a simple rectangle.
1. Draw a rectangle.
2. To Fillet a single corner:
■ Begin the Fillet command.
■ Enter R and press ENTER.
■ Specify a fillet radius of .25 and press
ENTER.
■ Click the lines near one corner of the
rectangle as indicated below.
3. Now change the radius and use the Fillet
polyline option:
■ Begin the Fillet command.
■ Enter R and press ENTER.
■ Enter a fillet radius of .5 and press ENTER.
■ Enter P and press ENTER.
■ Select the rectangle.
Note: If this rectangle was made of separate
line segments instead of a polyline, the
previous radius would have remained and you
could not have used the Polyline option to fillet
all of the corners at once.
4. Now change the fillet radius to 0 to make sharp
corners on the rectangle:
■ Begin the Fillet command.
■ Enter R and press ENTER.
■ Enter a fillet radius of 0 and press ENTER.
■ Enter P and press ENTER.
■ Select the rectangle.
