Please precisely descibe your problem.  No errors but it does not render 
hardly makes sense.

Note if the rounding radius is exactly half of the length of the 
cylinder or the cylinder radius is the same as the rounding radius that 
macro won't work correctly - such cases could be handled in the macro 
but that would unnecessarily slow normal cases.
