TKInteriors Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Hi there, I created a custom molding using polylines then created "Molding" symbol. It wraps fine on the inside corners but doesn't connect at the outside corner. See attached. And thanks in advance for the help. Kind regards, Tamela Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TKInteriors Posted November 11, 2020 Author Share Posted November 11, 2020 X12 Premier The molding is wrapping soffits and walls. I didn't use a Molding Polyline. ...back to the drawing board. Thank you, Tamela Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glennw Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Did you create a 3D Molding Symbol or a 2D Molding Profile? The first are made from 3D objects, the second are made from a 2D cad profile. Looks like you may have created a 3D Molding Symbol. A 3D Molding Symbol will not wrap an external corner - or an internal corner, it just looks like it does - it stops perpendicular to the walls.

Thank you, Tamela Have a look at this thread from yesterday about Creating a Molding you can apply to a Molding Line (or in some DBX's such as Window Sills and Lintels) , it should get you started and isn't that difficult.

Dermot Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 There are about 25 videos about moldings available. I would start there: https://www.chiefarchitect.com/search/?default_tab=video&q=molding&page=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
