Press Start Tutorial - Beveling Issue

Collaborations

Greetings! I am working through the Press Start Tutorial and ran into an issue when trying to increase the Mean Bevel Weight on the back of the gaming console. I choose the edge-loops for each slot and increase the weight, but nothing happens except the orange selection line slowly turns blue. The beveling function seems to be working just fine everywhere else, but just not here. Not sure what's going on, so any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Hi Rob (not related to Omar, I suppose...),

    If increasing the Weight or otherwise changing the size of the Bevel doesn't have any effect, this is usually because Clamp Overlap is on:

    This is on by default and I must say, a bit hidden in modern Blender.

    I'll give this a shot when I get home. This is more than likely the issue. Thank you for the quick reply, spikeyxxx!!! Also, in regard to Omar, is there another Domenech roaming around these parts?

    is there another Domenech roaming around these parts?

    Indeed there is; a great and long standing member of this community! 

    He has been on a secret mission the last months, look at the pinned 'Collab 2021- Los HabanerosHouse Interior team' thread if you like.

    Let us know if this was what caused your problem.

    Turning off the Clamp Overlap did the trick! Thank you so much!


    I'll look into Omar. It's not common to see other Domenechs around.
