Live Corner Radius - Expand round corner created with live corner widget on a live shape to an object/Shape/Path *without* a numeric value
I want to eliminate the live corner radius numbers and have the object simply be a shape without a corner radius assigned (Just expanded shape to a path with a fill) so that if its scaled by just about anyone it can't get screwed up. It seems like CC limited the ability to do this easily, its making me insane! Just like you would outline a stroke, I want to "outline" or expand the corner radius created with the widget, any ideas?
Basically if I save a drawing or logo that was created with the corner widget as an expanded .eps it still keeps the values of the corners so if someone opens it and odens't have scale corner on it get get VERY messed up easily just as not having expanded a stroke might with an uneducated or inexperienced user.

For some reason Object > Shape > Expand, which is the first solution that I thought of, didn't work, but Object > Path > Add Anchor Points definitely works. Thank you!

I found the solution. Select your shape with live corners, go to Object > Path > Add Anchor Points.

Does Object > Shape > Expand shape do what you're looking for? I experimented by drawing a rectangle, then using the live corners widgets to change them to a random radius size. Using the above menu command removes the widgets and changes the object from a "Rectangle" (in the layers pallet) to a "Path" object.
Bonus, if you need the widgets back, just go back into Object > Shape > Convert to shape and the widgets come back.
