One Chamfer Piece with Three Patches

Two Chamfer Pieces without Patches
|
After you select the edge reference, the chamfer piece is automatically propagated across all tangent points resulting in tangent segments called patches. In the illustration below, tangency occurs due to the existing round geometry.
|
After you select two edge references, the system places two separate chamfer pieces at the selected references to create the chamfer. In the illustration below, tangency does not occur due to the vertex. This results in the two overlapping chamfer pieces. The system uses transitions to resolve this discontinuous geometry.
