Hello!
I have exactly the same problem – complete and utter newbie to 3D, first attempt with a 3D program, and using the same book. Can’t make it past this first tutorial because no matter what I do, this chamfer thing does NOTHING! I have read the above replies, and think I have found the relevant apply button. It can only be pressed if I unselect the Realtime Update button – but nothing happens. Is this a facility that is disabled in the demo version? (Surely not). It must be something very simple, I suppose …..
Is there some other way to smooth the edges of a spline?
Thanks,
Fiona
