kal152 Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 I cannot get a doorway with no casing to sit flush against a perpendicular wall. It has no casing yet will not get closer than 5" from the wall to the left. Why is this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRAWZILLA Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 set your casing to 0 and you can move it closer to the wall 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kal152 Posted January 6, 2018 Author Share Posted January 6, 2018 Thanks, that is silly you have to do that when the casing is turned off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also go into your Plan Defaults and check “Ignore Casing...” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRAWZILLA Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 It is silly to have to turn off the casing and change the number, I really don't like to use the ignore the casing option, or you will see the casing imbedded into the wall in floor view. I always like it the way it's built, you can always widen the hallways to accommodate whatever casing you might have. Your contractors will scream at you if it's not correct.. If your plan calls for 6" or larger casing, you need to plan for that. Real world conditions rules. I realize in the condition you stated it doesn't matter b/c it's an opening without any casing.

JJohnson Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Kal could also, break the wall in plan view, and pull the left section up in cross section/elevation view to achieve the look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Michael, I always use the Ignore Casing Setting , you just need to realize it is on.... or turn it off if the Job mandates Full Casings everywhere. M.

Anna_Gorres Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 What about having the base molding within the doorway? Is there an easier way to do this than using a custom molding line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps your wall(s) isn't quite aligned with the Doorway? it seems to work for me okay ...Post your plan and someone will look otherwise...
