I'm feeling really stupid here and can't believe this is beating me - but I just can't get a fillet curve to behave in the attached family...
Essentially, all I'm trying to do is have a smooth fillet with a radius twice that of the pipe's radius - which is all well and good when I model the sweep "as made" ; but if I change the radius of the pipe the fillet's "x2" equation fails - as does it when I change the angle.
I really don't want to re-make the sweep each time there's a change to the angle of the falling section.... How do I make the fillet section follow the changing angle parametrically? What am I doing wrong?
