Is there an equivalent to AutoCad "Fillet w/ radius" command in Revit?

Yes it is part of the line tool and the wall tool, so if you want to fillet walls, click walls, then on the options bar, click the pulldown arrow where the diff. line choices are, one is fillet, when you click fillet you can select a radius or just do it graphically, then pick the two walls or lines you want to fillet.

I always thought that the fillet tool should be in the trim area, not the line tool area. Anyone with me on this?

Well fillets and chamfers create new lines, so I guess that's why it's under the line tool. Trimming is supposed to trim wall/lines together so that they meet, but when you fillet or chamfer wall/lines, they don't meet. There is a new wall/line created in between them to make the join.

I'm with you Kroke. It is a more logical place for it. It would be quicker to activate as well.

We still need a chamfer command, I don't care where it is.

...and a parametric chamfer for solids like Inventor too.
