fillets on a part missing in assembly

Post by dbotos »

Made part in PartDesign workbench. Last step was to add fillets with the PartDesign fillet tool by selecting edges. Fillets show okay in the part:

But are missing in the assembly (using A2Plus workbench):

Any ideas?

Thanks,
David

flawless in the 2nd sketch, it works better,
but everything in a single sketch is even more

I disagree with you.
94 constraints is too much.
41 lines also.

:idea:

Sketch(000) is created first and is used for every other sketches and last 2 features.
Just slots and circles.
Everything simple : KISS !

I'm trying to understand why it would generate and display the fillets correctly in the part, but not in the assembly. What is different between the two? If there was a problem with a sketch of some earlier feature, shouldn't the feature tree fail at that point and not even generate the fillets?

As a test, I made a simple L-shaped piece with an inside fillet and brought that into the assembly and it looks fine:

Is there a problem in your construction tree ? https://wiki.freecadweb.org/Tree_view/en#Overlay_icons

Yes, it had the white exclamation mark on red background on the tabs sketch. I don't know how that sketch became messed-up, but that seems to have been the culprit. That Wiki page had an interesting note for that icon:

"Note: All other objects depending on an object in such an error state will not be properly recomputed, thus they may still show some old state."

I am used to such errors causing a model to revert to a state where that feature and any features depending on it are not rendered.

I had to blow away a good bit of that tabs sketch since I was not exactly sure what was wrong with it and do some fixing of features after that, but now it shows correctly in the assembly:
