: Illustrator: how to round the corner of an angled shape What I'd like to do is make the top sides straight horizontals, with the 10deg curved verticals and rounded corners on the top left

@Annie732

First draw the rectangle. Then, with the white arrow select just the corner node you want to round. Go to convert anchor point (it's in my top bar) the only option will be round.

The corner will be rounded but probably won't look right. Use the handles to bring it back into place. Select rounded corners node with white arrow and tap it towards center of rectangle to bring curve in.

Alternately use the round corners tool. It works on all 4 corners so you have to restore the other two corners. To do this draw your rectangle, copy and paste another one, select either and hit effect/stylize/round corners.

Preview and adjust value until you've achieved sufficient roundness.

Select both rectangles and align them horizontally and vertically. Make sure there's no stroke. Open pathfinder window and hit divide. Erase the corners you don't want.

Select all and hit pathfinder/unite to put it back together.
