Same Bevel Issue

Question Modeling

Hi.

I can see other people having the same problem. I did everything that was mentioned there, but once I bevel (with CTRL+B) and confirm, it will select the faces no matter what I do (I'm in Face Select Mode). I also beveled in Edge Mode. I checked to see if I selected the correct edges.  

When I'm in Face Select Mode and I try to bevel, some edges that were selected disappear and I just get 8 faces. (I'm missing the top edges). Not sure what to do next to have the same result.

Also, I'm not able to upload images if I ask the question here. I just have the video option.

    If the Bevel is causing troubles, it can be a couple of things, check for duplicated faces or vertices, maybe your scale is not applied.

    Check this link, Martin did a small breakdown of things that usually go wrong:

    I checked for duplicated vertices, there were none.

    Clamp Overlap is off.

    The scale was applied.

    I think the workaround would be to just deselect the faces that are causing me problems, and go on from there.

    You can upload the file if you want us to take a better look at the problem.

    ...and you can upload Images now, just not directly (first post) under the lesson:

    (I reported this already...)

    Oh, ok. Thanks, I see the Icon now.

    I appreciate that. Here's the file

  • Martin Bergwerf replied

    Right Roxana,

    I see what you mean, I think.

    After Beveling, these Faces:

    each have 4 Edges around them selected and are therefore also selected. This is how it should be.

    The fact that this didn't happen in the video, was actually a 'bug' in the older Blender Versions.

    You'll have to deselect them by hand (in Face Select Mode).

    Oh, I see! The logic of what you're saying was in my mind, but I was seeing something else in the course. Thanks for this clarification!
