"Face-face" fillet?

S1mon

Other CAD systems have the concept of a face-face fillet where you chose two faces (which don't need to intersect or be solid) and it constructs a fillet between then. In some cases, you'll need to tell it which direction to try to apply the fillet because there is more than one possible solution.

Onshape has a full-round which requires a third reference, but is missing a face-face fillet. 

Is there a custom FeatureScript out there which does face-face fillets?

I also did a quick search and didn't see and references or improvement requests for this.

I've created an improvement request.

Maybe I didn’t understand your question, but i know a feature C2C Full Round Fillet. Do you know it?

S1mon

I'm very familiar with the full round feature.

Here's the help for the Solidworks version of what I'm looking for.

Sorry, I didn’t understand correctly.

I voted for it. I've missed it sometimes.

I think @angelo_scozzarella talked about our FS Full round (Our company previuos name was Close 2 circle --> C2C)

This FS is still usefull in some cases, such as when working with sheet metal parts, where the Onshape feature doesn't work.

But it doesn't solve the face-face fillet
In this case, maybe you can use delete face and then fillet

@emagdalenaC2i
That's an interesting FeatureScript, and useful for sheetmetal, but it would not solve the issue I was having. 

If I could get delete face/heal to work, I would have done that. Where a Face-Face fillet is especially useful is when the underlying faces don't want to extend to intersect, but a large enough fillet will fill the gap or replace the faces that are in between.
