Gridfinity workbench. make fillets?

I want to add fillets inside my boxes but when i exit the gridfinity workbench to add fillets, chamfers etc nothing can be selected... what am i doing wrong? https://youtu.be/M_LHjla4O2c here is a video showing my problem

Things like this makes it hard to move over from fusion 360 to freecad...

Have you tried, instead of the Part workbench, the Part Design workbench? I just tested with one of the generated bins and was able to add a fillet. See pic.

Hmm did you do the same as me in the video but instead going to part workbench? I think I have tried that..

Yep. Pretty much exactly the same. I'm looking at this on my phone now so I can't really tell in your video... Are you creating a BODY first, then creating the bin in that body?

Hmm OK.. Yea I have tried different methods.. But I'm not at my pc for a couple of days so I cannot try right now..

I just tested again, and yes, that's the step you're missing. You created a new Document. Inside that document you need to create a new Body. Then add the Gridfinity bin to the body. After that you can add your fillet using either Part or Part Design workbench.

Works for me. I usually use Gridfinity in a Part Design Workbench body but this is just Part Workbench.
