illustrator, rounded corners afterward?

[austininin]

greetings all,

i'm pretty sure this is a big fat no, but i wanted to see if anyone knew if illustrator had the option to make rounded corners to a rectangle after the fact--that is, once you've already made a rectangle can you go to an option box and apply a rounded corner setting? i know that you can do this as a first step, but i am about to make changes to about 70 dies and am not really that stoked about it. if it doesn't work, it blows my mind that there isn't a way to do this.

thanks a ton!

Filter>Stylize>Round Corners.

If the rectangle is SMALL it doesn't work all that well.

I do believe you are fucked.

next time use the radiused corner shape tool.

Not exactly what you're asking for, but it might do the job.

yeah you will get a weird cut in and spike on little shapes.

you can adjust the radius of the circle tho.

There are litle buttons on the stroke window that will change the stroke to rounded if you want...this may or may not work depending on how much you need the edges rounded. You could always bump up the stroke and make the stroke rounded.
