Is it possible to add a variable fillet radius to the Chamfer/filet feature?

Please follow the format below for requesting a feature.

The problem that this feature will solve:
-This feature is standard in my others cad programs. In parts and mold design, we use it many times in part design.

Brief description of the outcomes that you expect from this feature:
-As an example, in (mold)runners design, sometime i need to add a radius along the edge of a runner but cannot keep the same dimension due to material flow so i start with a 2mm radius at the beginning and a 5mm radius at the end. it can grow or decrease linearly or smoothly.

What can’t you achieve without this feature?
-It’s a useful feature in general design

Is this a workflow blocker for you? Is this why you can’t use Shapr3D for work? Is this slowing you down?
-This is indeed a barrier in design. This force me to use another program just because of that.
-BUT i like very much where Shapr3D Parametric is now.!!!

I would also like to see this feature included. Every update i check to see if this has been added. It would really transform my creative options. Imagine you wanted to draw a classic snail shell. Currently the radius on a conical spiral can only be as big as what will fit at the small end. A variable radius would allow you to have a radius expanding in proportion to the spiral. Hopefully it can be added soon. Shapr3D on the iPad is my favourite CAD
