Bevel suddenly not working.

posted to: Outlining the Shape

I was able to create the first bevel on the top two corners, but as soon as I tried to create it on the bigger bottom corner, it just stopped working. I select both top and bottom vertices and then click Ctrl+B, which brings the line up, but when I move the mouse or roll the mouse wheel, nothing happens.

    I've notice that creating the bevel works on any new shape I add in. Also, the problem seems to only be on the bottom corners. I am able to create new bevels on the vertices near the area that's already curved.Blender issue.png

    Hi Isaiah,

    maybe you have 'double Vertices' in that corner:

    Apart from double vertices, what often also happens is that the object is very small or too big and the value in the bevel is not enough to travel the distance or travels it too fast. Make sure you have applied your scale in object mode with Control + A and Scale.

    That was it, I needed to merge them. Thank you so much Martin. And thanks for the advice as well Omar.
