Multiple Fillet/Chamfer

The fillet and chamfer commands now have a “multiple” option. After you start the command, but before you select the first object, hit “M”. You can then fillet/chamfer as many lines as you like before exiting the command. For previous versions (at least up to 2004, maybe 2005), the "multiple" option is triggered by "U". Don't ask me why...

I am a High School CAD teacher. We were working on a drawing that requires a fillet between to circles. The problem is that AutoCAD fillets the circles in the wrong direction. Is there a way to reverse it without using the mirror command which makes it not look right?
Thanks

I'm not quite sure what you mean by "wrong direction", but you may have better luck drawing a third circle using the TTR option (tangent-tangent-radius), and then trimming the third circle to the first two.
