Have you read "To Create a Variable Round" in Help (Part / Engineering Features)? Not trying to be flippant, it's just a good place to start.

Now anybody'll be able to do it. BTW, that's the closest any of the help stuff comes to a tutorial; it's acutally pretty nice and shows off some of the cool new stuff they're coming up with in the Object/Action mode.

Create a regular round, then rmc on the value in the graphics area and select add radius. A new radius will be displayed if you put the cusor over the solid white dot the cursor will turn into a 4 way move, from there you could drag it along the tangent curve you originally selected to the area you would like it. I personally hate the new variable round but the instant feedback is excellent.

Thanks for all your answers. I did as Jeff suggested and managed to do it. Andrea
