DeLayDesign Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Yeah; it's a bit annoying, but one way I've overcome it is to use the soffit tool and add a very thin (1/16") molding to the sides the same height as the beam. You can tell the beam to sit under ceiling and it will automatically slope following the ceiling. The moldings allows you to then have two different variations of the material traveling in the correct direction if you need. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that we can add moldings to the soffit. I just did not think about this. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would also be a very simple way to adjust into a boxed beam with the sides extending slightly lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_Nyhof Posted March 7, 2023 Author Share Posted March 7, 2023 I was so hopeful, but when you angle the soffit to fit the cathedral ceiling, it removes the molding... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
