ClarkeThrasher Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 I am drawing a custom painted wood fence piece by piece but the polyline solids of the frame are merging together so that one cannot see the seams where the wood pieces contact. I know I could create seams by leaving 1/16" gaps at each joint but wonder if there is not some easier more elegant choice that revel the seams with zero gaps?

ClarkeThrasher Posted March 20, 2019 Author Share Posted March 20, 2019 My pic shows current "problem" of merged frame pieces. Yes the vertical fence boards are to be made from 5-1/2" x 3/4" Tongue and Groove with a V which do have small chamfers and as such show their separateness quite well and are not a problem. I'll change colors on some pieces of the frame boards to show the joints that I'd like to be be displayed as one color/material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskan_Son Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 2 things... 1. You can place small gaps between the objects to keep them from merging (more realistic looking too) 2. You can create a copy of the material (simply having a different name is enough) and paint every other piece a different material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
