Improving "Fillet" and "Bevel"

Christian
Bonjour all,
Messing around with the "Fillet" tool since I was stuck with it some times ago (https://forum.librecad.org/The-fillet-function-does-not-work-anymore-tp5718541.html), I came to realise that it could possibly be improved:
If one draws 2 crossing lines and inserts a fillet without trim, deciding later to trim the lines with the "Trim" tools, only one line is trimmed, not the other. Why, Warum, Pourquoi, Perche?
Of course one can delete the fillet and do it again with Trim ticked, nonetheless this is not logical.

About the "Bevel" tool, why does it not show where and how it will be before clicking on the second entity, much like what happens with the "Fillet" tool? This would allow to adjust dimension before ending the process.

That's all for now before the virus eats us.
Christian

I remember there have been discussions here about issues with calculating tangent points. I suspect this is the culprit here too. I guess we will have to live with this.

Bevel preview: someone just hasn't done it.
