A neat trim endcut cannot be applied to a round pillar.
Solution
The problem where a neat trim endcut cannot be applied to a round pillar occurs because round pillars are not supported for endcuts.
The endcut functionality requires an edge between a baseline face and an end face for positioning and baseline faces do not exist for round pillars. To get the desired result, users can work around the problem by using a Replace Face feature to match the side face to the boundary face.
Create the pillar with Limit Type = Square Cut. This will link the boundary faces to the pillar part.
Make the pillar part as work part and add Replace Face features for each end to replace the end face with the linked boundary faces.
