Skeinforge Fillet
From DEMOZENDIUM
Fillet rounds the corners slightly in a variety of ways. This is to reduce corner blobbing and sudden extruder acceleration.

Operation
The default 'Activate Fillet' checkbox is off. When it is on, the functions described below will work, when it is off, nothing will be done.
Settings
Fillet Procedure Choice
Default is 'Bevel'.
Arc Point
When selected, the corners will be filleted with an arc using the gcode point form (G2 X Y I J). Requires firmware support for the G2 & G3 g-codes, currently supported by: Marlin.
Arc Radius
When selected, the corners will be filleted with an arc using the gcode radius form (G2 X Y R). Requires firmware support for the G2 & G3 g-codes.
Arc Segment
When selected, the corners will be filleted with an arc composed of several segments.
Bevel
When selected, the corners will be beveled.
Corner Feed Rate Multiplier
Default: 1.0
Defines the ratio of the feed rate in corners over the original feed rate. With a high value the extruder will move quickly in corners, accelerating quickly and leaving a thin extrusion. With a low value, the extruder will move slowly in corners, accelerating gently and leaving a thick extrusion.
Fillet Radius over Perimeter Width
Default: 0.35
Defines the width of the fillet.
Reversal Slowdown over Perimeter Width
Default: 0.5
Defines how far before a path reversal the extruder will slow down. Some tools, like nozzle wipe, double back the path of the extruder and this option will add a slowdown point in that path so there won't be a sudden jerk at the end of the path. If the value is less than 0.1 a slowdown will not be added.
Use Intermediate Feed Rate in Corners
Default: on
When selected, the feed rate entering the corner will be the average of the old feed rate and the new feed rate.
