    Default Rounding only two corners of a rectangle

    Hi,

    If I draw a rectangle, can I just round one corner or two or three and then save it as a transparent png?

    Thanks, I much appreciate the help I receive from this forum.

    You need to either created a rounded rectangle, then create a non-rounded rectangle and place over the rounded cornered rectangle area with the corners you want sharp and Edit/Combine/Delete or Draw a line an Edit/Combine/Slice and remove the rounded corner edge you don't want.

    For three rounded one square corner. Create a smaller square cornered rectangle and place underneath the rounded corner you want squared and hit Edit/Combine/Add.

    You can't create a 2 or 3 rounded corner on its own without adding or subtracting the part away.

    Another way, it is not the easiest but you can learn to use more tools
    Create a rectangle (rectangle 1) bigger than you desire, without rounded corners
    Create a rectangle (rectangle 2) with the size you want and rounded corners.
    Place the rectangle 2 over rectangle 1.
    Select rectangle 1 and set no fill and no line to become it transparent.
    Press shift and click over rectangle 2 to select both rectangles.
    Press Q (clipview).
    If you select the final shape you'll see such a symbol at center incdicating that shapes are clipviewed.
    With mouse drag that symbol to adjust as you desire, you'll see that you can hide two or three corners of your rounder rectangle.
    I'm attaching an example

    I'm used to have a 'round edge' command in my CAD tool (Pro Engineer)

    Here's one way I have used recently getting those rounded corners.
