Precise rounded corner radius

Is is possible in publisher to creat rounded corner boxes with a precise
corner radius such as 3.5mm

It would be tough.

Arrange, ruler guides, format ruler guides, type 3.5 into both vertical and
horizontal and set. Drag your rounded rectangle to the corner and use the yellow
tag to adjust the corner. Best done with a draw program however.

Thank for the reply, I was aware of that option, so I have used visio to
create the radius.

Hopefully later version to come they will make the rounded corners an option.

The rounded corners are an option. It's just difficult to set the radius
of curvature precisely. You could try creating a square of side the
radius that you want, aligning it exactly so that its edges match with
those of the rounded rectangle in the corner with the grab handle,
zooming in to maximum zoom, and then dragging the grab handle to the
appropriate corner of the square.
