Hi All,

 

When I use "Effect> Stylize> round corner" and maximizie it on the regular hexagon, it did not give a perfect circle, may I ask why? thanks

Correct answer Monika Gause

Because of the way the Round corner effect works. It has always been a crude way to round corners and it has never done what everyone wanted it to do.

 

In order to make a square into a circle, use Effect > Convert to Shape > Ellipse.
