I am trying to draw a simple cabinet door that has a bevel on its face and a small curve at each corner. I have drawn the basic door, used push-pull to get some thickness, and thicker at the centre. Then created a bevel to follow-me around the edge...

Without the radiused corner it all works fine...

but add a raduised corner first and it screws up...

Can I achieve the effect that I want? It's not the end of the world because the radii in question are probably too small to be seen in the grand scheme of things but even if only as an academic excercise it is something I would like to do.

As a footnote - I started by making the basic door shape a group so that the bevel wouldn't stick to it but couldn't seem to then do the follow me around it. If I selected the group I couldn't select the bevel and vice-versa. Is this a feature or am I doing something wrong?
