    You can brute force it by cutting through the center of the revolve to create a section. You will then be able to highlight an edge.

    Alternately you can create a sketch through the center of the revolve and in the sketch use the 'use' tool to extract the fillet. you will then be able to measure this new edge, or dimension it.

    @Narayan_K We are working on adding that to measure.  Using edges is the option now.  Nice suggestion @traveler_hauptman
    I am interested in this fillet radius measurement as well, any progress?

    Thanks!

    If you use the "modify fillet" feature it will show you the current size of an imported model fillet - you can then change the value if you want.
