Edge Softening
== Description ==
A plug-in that fakes small filleted edges in RDK compliant renderers.
It allows you to fake filleted edges on meshes for rendering.
*Use the Object Properties “Edge Softening” option once the plug-in is installed to change the radius. The plug-in requires an RDK compliant renderer to work (for example, Brazil).
*Use the command “ExtractSoftenedEdgeMesh” to obtain the mesh for use in other render engines(for example, Vray) or RP.
