With the latest version of shapr3D, it’s no longer possible to make a “sketch” from the face of an object!  
Before the introduction of “History-Based Parametric Modeling”, drawing rounded corners was automatic!

But I would recommend just draw that sketch already with round corners.

- You’ll get control of that shape through this sketch in future.
- You wont add a couple of unneded steps in the history.
- You don’t use filets at all (remembering that filets slows down the CAD)
