Hi, im trying to bevel a box on all eight corners but cant seem to get it to work. It appears I can only bevel splines? Is this correct or what do i need to do? Thanks :)

Hey, man, you can also turn a box into an editable mesh or editable poly, window the edges, and click the chamfer button. Keep bisecting the polys to get a fillet.

Well, someday you are going to want to add a bevel to something more complex that a box...it's the only way to do it...
