Interface

Bevel Type group

Group—Beveling takes place along the average normal of each contiguous group of polygons. If you bevel multiples of such groups, each group moves along its own averaged normal.

Local Normal—Beveling takes place along each selected polygon's normal.

By Polygon—Bevels each polygon individually.

Height—Specifies the extent of the extrusion in scene units. You can extrude selected polygons outward or inward, depending on whether the value is positive or negative.

Outline Amount—Makes the outer border of selected polygons bigger or smaller, depending on whether the value is positive or negative.

Apply—Applies the settings to the current selection, retaining them if you then make another selection.

OK—Applies the settings to the current selection and closes the dialog.

Cancel—Closes the dialog without applying the settings to the current selection. Does not reverse previous uses of Apply.
