The beveling tool in the spline modeler has tremendous power, beyond
conventional beveling. It automates curvatures along a profile on
either side of a cross section. That means you can now bevel the
profile to match the cross section in order to make a cube beveled
on all edges, or spline text beveled fore and aft.
But that use just scratches the surface. You can also make
modifiable corregations along a pipeline extrusion, something that
would be very hard in the vertex modeler. The bevel options give you
enough variation to create some quite interesting shapes.
Just remember that the bevel tool creates curvature in a profile on
either side of a cross section, and you'll get the hang of it.
