The ChamferEdge command creates a ruled surface between selected polysurface edges with varying chamfer distances, trims and joins the chamfer surfaces to the surface.

**Steps**

1. Select edges.

   Or, double-click an edge to select tangent edges.
2. Edit chamfer distance handles and options.

#### Command-line options

-ShowsChamferDistance

* Yes: Displays chamfer distance handles in the viewport.
* No: Hides chamfer distance handles in the viewport. A hidden chamfer distance handle will display when the mouse cursor is close to it.

-NextChamferDistance: Specifies the chamfer distance for the next edge.

-ChainEdges: Automatically selects connected edge based on continuity.

-TrimAndJoin: Trims and joins the resulting surface to the input surfaces.  [History ](https://docs.mcneel.com/rhino/8/help/en-us/commands/history.htm)only works if TrimAndJoin=No

-SelectEdges: Allows selecting more edges after the selection has been closed.

-Preview: Displays a dynamic preview. You can change the options and the preview will update

-Edit: Edit the most recent selected set of edges.

* "Tip": When no command is running, double-clicking the object is the alternative way to start the editing mode.
* To edit edges

  1.Select the object to edit. The editable edges highlight.

  2.Edit the size of the handles.

  3.Click the SelectEdges option.

  4.Use Shift + click to add edges. Use Ctrl + click to remove edges. Remove all edges in the most recent edge set to return to the previous edge set.
