Hi all,

So I have an extrusion using a circle which I am drafting.  The end result is a cone with the top chopped off (don't know if there is a technical declaration of this geometrical shape).  As a result, I cannot just take 1/2 the diameter of the circle for the radius of a fillet (in this case I have a 1mm circle and am applying a .5mm radius).  This will leave a sizeable flat on the top of the cone which now has a radius.

Looking through the forum, I noticed a post from 7 years ago which discusses this.  I am thinking "surely this is now a standard feature", but I have not convinced myself......Aside from dome features and revolved cuts, is there a way to do this? 

Thanks.
