Hello everyone,

When I draw inserts with wood flooring, i like to create a border around the insert to delimit the insert with curved wood planks (see attached screenshots). In order to have the wood flooring ‘curving’ along the face of the border, i used to create manually each face of a rounded corner, then using Fredo6 ThruPaint to map the texture with QuadMesh UV Mapping.

My question is, is there a tool that enables creating those faces automatically ?

Hello Paul,

In my case, I want the surface to stay flat ; Round Corner is a great tool but it cannot ‘round edges’ on a flat surface, nor can it create flat surface, but thank you for the idea !
