Using
FILLET is also a convenient method of creating an arc with a specified
radius that is tangent to two selected objects.
FILLET can be used to round all
corners on a polyline using a single command.
If both objects being filleted are on the same layer, the fillet arc is created on
that layer. Otherwise, the fillet arc is created on the current layer. The layer
affects object properties including color and linetype.
Use the Multiple option to fillet more than one set of objects without leaving
the command.
Set the Fillet Radius
The fillet radius is the radius of the arc that connects filleted objects. Chang-
ing the fillet radius affects subsequent fillets. If you set the fillet radius to 0,
filleted objects are trimmed or extended until they intersect, but no arc is
created.
Trim and Extend Filleted Objects
You can use the Trim option to specify whether the selected objects are
trimmed or extended to the endpoints of the resulting arc or left unchanged.
By default, all objects except circles, full ellipses, closed polylines, and splines
are trimmed or extended when filleted.
