Chamfer in Solids??

I am having a problem chamfering in solids. I created a solid flange, then added a boss which is a square block on top of the flange. Then from the side cplane I extruded a cut to represent a bore perpendicular to the side cplane face. When I try to chamfer the bore I get the message "Angle between faces varies, cannot chamfer". Now I've tried all 3 types of chamfers, selected all different geometry and always get the same thing.

If your square block boss had no draft angle, or if the bore axis was 90deg to the drafted face, you would be fine. The angle between the bore and the boss face must be constant.

I tested this in other Parasolid-based modeller, and was able to chamfer your part without these constraints. I'll pass this along to CNC Software.
