DianeP Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Using the adjust material definition tool, I was able to change the width of the lap siding from 4" to 8" but can't seem to find a way to make board and batten 2' on center instead of 1' on center. Any ideas of what I should do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DianeP Posted February 7, 2018 Author Share Posted February 7, 2018 Sorry for the delayed response. Went on to another project. Thanks Eric and Mick. I can't tell you how wonderful it is to have this forum with such willing and helpful people. It and you rock!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DianeP Posted February 7, 2018 Author Share Posted February 7, 2018 I was able to download Eric's but it was pure white with no lines. I also downloaded and installed Mick's and saw there was 8", 10" and 12" available. All look very nice but I need a 24" and when I try to adjust the width it makes the batten to wide. Tried to find the .pat files and edit it in notepad, but didn't have any luck finding it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are 3 in the ChiefSiding.pat file that you could use: 167, 168, and 193. I believe the one Chief uses OOB is 167. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
