Linear pattern fillet would not work? How to fix it

Lewis_LiuLewis_Liu Member Posts: 3 PRO
I was trying to linear pattern some fillet, but neither default nor apply per instance gave me any success. 
The pattern distance was the result of a equation and it has no problem, other feature patterns using the same distance and settings were totally fine.
How can I solve this? There are too many corners that need fillet in my design.

    Are you patterning the base geometry as well? If so, the easiest solution might be to include the fillet in the first linear pattern.
    Alternatively, you could try using the "create selection" dialogue to select all edges of the same length at the very end (after all the base geometry is created) This could give you more flexibility in terms of controlling which edges are filleted (see below)
    (right click => select => create selection => edges => equal length => add selection => fillet)
