This tool creates chamfers (flat face at 45 degrees to both adjoining faces) on the selected edges of an object. A new separate Chamfer entry (followed by a consecutive number if there are already existing chamfers in the document) is created in the Project tree. |
|||
The [[Image:PartDesign_Chamfer.svg|24px]] '''PartDesign Chamfer''' tool creates chamfers on the selected edges of an object. It adds a '''Chamfer''' object to the document with its corresponding representation in the [[Tree_view|Tree view]]. |

* Select a single or multiple edges or a face on an object, then start the tool either by clicking the {{Button|[[File:PartDesign Chamfer.png|16px|PartDesign Chamfer|link=PartDesign Chamfer]] [[PartDesign Chamfer|PartDesign Chamfer]]}} button or {{Button|PartDesign}} → {{Button|Chamfer}} from the top menu. In case you selected a face all its edges are respected for chamfering. |
|||
* In Chamfer parameters in the TaskPanel, set the chamfer size either by entering the value, or by clicking on the up/down arrows. The applied chamfer is shown in real time. |

'''The PartDesign Chamfer is not to be confused with its [[Part Chamfer|Part workbench counterpart]]'''. Although they share the same icon, they are not the same, and are not used the same way. |
|||
Here is how they differ from each other: |
|||
* Edges must be selected on an object before activating the PartDesign Chamfer. With the Part Chamfer, the tool can be started, then a solid is selected, then edges. |
|||
* The PartDesign Chamfer creates a separate Fillet entry (followed by a sequential number if there are already existing fillets) in the Project tree for the current body. The Part Chamfer becomes the parent of the object it was applied to. |
|||
* The PartDesign Chamfer offers a live preview of the fillet applied to the object before validating the function. |

Description
The PartDesign Chamfer tool creates chamfers on the selected edges of an object. It adds a Chamfer object to the document with its corresponding representation in the Tree view.
Usage
Add a chamfer
- Optionally activate the Body to chamfer.
- There are several ways to select edges to chamfer:
- Select one or more edges of the Body individually.
- Select one or more faces of the Body to select all their edges.
- Select a feature (usually the last feature) of the Body to select all its edges. introduced in version 0.20
- For a chain of tangentially connected edges only a single edge needs to be selected, the chamfer will propagate along the chain.
- There are several ways to invoke the tool:
- Press the Chamfer button.
- Select the Part Design → Apply a dress-up feature → Chamfer option from the menu.
- If there is no active Body, and there are two or more Bodies in the document, the Active Body Required dialog will open and prompt you to activate one. If there is a single Body it will be activated automatically.
- The Chamfer parameters task panel opens. See Options for more information.
- Press the OK button to finish.
Edit a chamfer
- Do one of the following:
- The Chamfer parameters task panel opens. See Options for more information.
- Press the OK button to finish.
Options
- To add edges do one of the following:
- Press the Add button to start selecting edges and/or faces in the 3D view.
- To select all remaining edges do the following:
- If required press the Add button.
- Use the Ctrl+Shift+A keyboard shortcut, or right-click the list and select Add all edges from the context menu. introduced in version 0.20
- To remove edges do one of the following:
- Press the Remove button to start deselecting edges and/or faces in the 3D view. Selected elements are highlighted in purple.
- Select one or more elements in the list and press the Del key, or right-click the list and select Remove from the context menu.
- Specify a chamfer Type:
- Equal distance: One distance is used to place both chamfer edges.
- Two distances: Two distances are used to place the chamfer edges.
- Distance and angle: A distance is used to place one chamfer edge, the placement of the other chamfer edge is defined by the angle of the chamfer.
- Press the Flip direction button to flip the direction of the chamfer (deactivated for Equal distance).
- Set the Size of the chamfer.
- Set the Size2 of the chamfer (only available if Two distances is selected).
- Set the Angle of the chamfer (only available if Distance and angle is selected).
- Check the Use all edges checkbox to select all edges of the previous feature. This deactivates the selection list and the related buttons. introduced in version 0.20
Notes
- PartDesign Chamfer should not be confused with Part Chamfer. Unless you know what you are doing, Part Chamfer should not be used on a PartDesign Body. See Part and PartDesign.
- Chamfers cannot completely consume the adjacent faces.

. - Data (hidden)Add Sub Shape (
PartShape
) - Data (hidden)Base Feature (
Link
): Link to the parent feature. - Data (hidden)_ Body (
LinkHidden
): Link to the parent body.
Chamfer

(default),Two distances
orDistance and Angle
. - DataSize (
QuantityConstraint
): The first chamfer distance. The default is1 mm
. - DataSize2 (

. The default is1 mm
. - DataAngle (
Angle
): The chamfer angle. Only used if DataChamfer Type isDistance and Angle

Bool
): Iftrue
the direction of the chamfer is flipped. Not used if DataChamfer Type isEqual distance
. The default isfalse
. - DataUse All Edges (
Bool
): Iftrue
all edges of the feature are chamfered, and the edges specified by DataBase are ignored. The default isfalse
.
Part Design
- DataRefine (
Bool
): Iftrue
redundant edges are removed from the result of the operation. The default value is determined by the Automatically refine model after sketch-based operation preference. See PartDesign Preferences.
