Bevel

Draw a bevel to a corner formed by two straight lines. Before confirming the bevel data, you can easily reverse the bevel dimensions using the dialog box functions.

  1. Select Drawing | Line Tools | Bevel.
  2. Select the additional properties of the bevel. Additional Bevel Properties
  3. Select the lines. The bevel will be added to the intersection point of the lines.
  4. Define the beveling data in the dialog box. Bevel Data
  5. Select OK.

Select two lines, and then select the context-sensitive Bevel function.

Note:
  • You can edit the dimensions of the bevel by selecting a beveled line, and the function Edit Bevel.

    Edit Bevel

  • You can delete a bevel by selecting the lines and the Delete function, or by pressing the Delete key. Restore the corner by trimming the lines.

    Trim Two Lines

  • If the 2D Constraint Manager is enabled, the beveling involves dimension constraints and coincident constraints.
  • You can edit the bevel using dimension constraints. Double-click a dimension constraint in the drawing, and edit the dimension value in the Text Edit field. Note that the Drives Geometry dimension property is selected in the dialog box.
