Do you have a sample file and images that demonstrate your problem?

Your version is quite old at this time. We are already in commit 0.19.19704.

There were several changes to the chamfer and fillet code lately, but they cannot be the cause of your issues because these changes happened just a few days ago, and aren't in your version. Maybe you can try a newer version and see if it works better for you.

Reference: [implemented] select several entities at once for fillets

Your version is not quite up-to-date, but as chamfers (and fillets) are sometimes a bit picky I would rather guess it's the model or you doing something wrong. Can you upload your file or preferably a simplified version and describe step by step what you do to encounter the issue.

OK, I get last. It behave different but work.

When I click add and select edge it just show blue line and not a chamfer. Before it show the chamfer when I select edge.

From before when it not show the chamfer when I click edge it was an error so I always click Remove that edge to stop error message when close. With now it not show chamfer until I close or click "add" again. It is confused for me but work OK this way.

Thank you but it just change line from blue to pink and not show chamfer. But when I close chamfer box it shows all chamfers where pink. Not as good as before where single click show chamfer then we know if it s good or not each time.

The dialog has been updated. Now you can select multiple edges at once and odd them to the list of fillets.

Please move the mouse over the Add button to see the tooltip describing how the button works. So just click the add button and then the edges you like.
