    Chamfer

    I have a 0.5 thick plate that is shaped like an H. On the front of the plate the middle of the H is about 4x4. I need to put a 35deg chamfer on the back side of the H. When I select the top of the plate and the back surface of the H I get champers all the way around the outside of the H. How do I limit the champer to just the middle of the H?

    Try selecting the edges individually.

    Just learning

    I think your correct. I had the same problem the other day with a fillet.

    Thanks for the help.

    There is a radio button called Tangent propogation which when Deselected [it's usually selected by default] will elliminate multiple edges being selected as well. Typically when you select a face however, it will chamfer all the edges of that face, the edge selection is what you want.
