filleting an arc and a line

[Anonymous]

I can fillet two lines, but I can't fillet an arc and a line or two arcs

I have wished AC could do this too (it can't). You should add this one to the wish list

Select the arc and line. Use the intersect tool or trim the ends so both endpoints meet. Activate any tool except the arrow tool, click on the corner. Pet palette pops up, select the fillet option.

And I nominate this discovery for "Most-Annoying-Just-Waiting-To-Be-Discovered-Eureka-Moment-of-All-ArchiCAD-Time." We should call it the "Mouse Quiver of the Century" describing the erotic and joyful pulse of amazement that travels up the arm when the discovery actually works. My arm, anyways.

Way to go, Alex! What other treasures lie hidden.... 😉

Off topic (lines only here - not arcs), but same pet palette: if you do the same thing to two lines, you get the Fillet/Chamfer Radius dialog - but there isn't a means to select which of fillet or chamfer you want ... you just get a fillet (matching the pet palette icon). It looks like GS simply used the same input dialog as for Line Extras ... and that the implication of Chamfer in the dialog is a cosmetic error. But, maybe I'm missing something?

Thanks,
Karl

You can also have the arrow tool activated and select the last option in the pet pallette (switches from transformation to modification), then select the fillet option.
