Undo the fillet. Delete the internal guide line. Soften the top face edges. Re-apply Round Corner. Result: Perfect, crack-free top. Conclusion The SketchUp round corner crack top is not a bug in Fredo6’s plugin; it is a symptom of messy native SketchUp geometry. While frustrating, it is entirely fixable. Whether you choose to manually stitch the missing face, use the Intersect Faces repair, or prevent it by grouping your top face, you now have the toolkit to defeat the crack.
Remember: Clean geometry is happy geometry. Always run Solid Inspector before rounding, and apply fillets in small increments. Happy modeling! sketchup round corner crack top
The designer had previously drawn a center guide line across the top face (to align leg holes). That guide line was a hidden, un-deleted edge. The Round Corner tried to round across that internal edge, creating a crack. Undo the fillet
In this comprehensive guide, we will dissect the causes of the dreaded "crack top," provide step-by-step repairs, and show you how to prevent it from ever happening again. Before fixing the problem, you must understand it. The Round Corner plugin works by offsetting, extruding, and stitching geometry. When you apply a fillet to a hard edge, SketchUp’s geometry engine (based on polygons, not true NURBS curves) must triangulate complex intersections. Re-apply Round Corner
