part editor stupid question

OK, I load a display board 4\" wide 36\"long 3/4\" thick. Take it to the part editor. Part is displayed in yellow vertically. I want to put a 1\" chamfer on the upper right corner. After selecting the chamfer tool I enter that i want a 1\" radius, I then select the right side and it is highlighted in green, so far so good. Now I click on the top edge and I get the error message that says \"the select edges do not intersect at a single point. What am I doing wrong????

Geo,
This tells me you are picking the two vertical intities of the shape. That is why the error your are getting is saying, \"the select edges do not intersect at a single point\". You need to pick the horizontal top and the vertical edge.

Tip: turning off your grid snaps will help you when picking objects.

First, Pick the horizontal top line

Next, select the vertical edge.

Thanks Todd,
I think I had the pick box too large, causing it to try to select both verticle edges. You got me on the right track. It seems to work ok now.
