Do you have a Sanibel Premiere home with rounded drywall edges?

If so are the edges in the MBR shower also rounded around the opening by the glass block and the lower edge of the shelf (sometimes called the pot shelf for displaying stuff on it) that goes across the opening of the walk in area or is that area of drywall the square edging.

I'd show a picture of what I mean but I don't know how to insert it from Picasa.

In ours -- squared corner on the shower side, rounded on the bathtub side. Top of pot shelf is squared, bottom is rounded, except over the shower where the bottom is squared.

Are the rounded corners called pencil corners by the builder?

We used to call then California corners??

Have no idea why

No. I heard they may be dropping rounded corners and going with pencil or straight only.
Had never heard of pencil until coming here.

Generally they are call bullnose. The difference between bullnose and pencil is just the radius of the rounded corner.
