Changing Default Corner Board to Custom 3D Solid

[Drew-PRH]

Good day,

 

I drew in 3D Solid a custom corner board, replicating the EZ Trim EZ31 - extruded Aluminum Outside Corner.

 

I can manually place the corner 'on top' of the corner - kinda - however by this method it will not pull back the siding material on either side (which I figured).

 

See the image included which shows the siding material needs to be pulled back slightly from the corners for the aluminum outside reveal to show.

 

For the material - within the - Open Object / Layers.

 

The Default Layer is "Corner Boards".

 

The Drawing Group is "24 - Corner Board/Quoin".

 

I've also tried place the default corner board, and then try 'Replace Molding'.

 

However that would not pull up my material in this manner.

 

So I suspect I don't have one of the properties correct.

 

Might someone know how to remedy this to use this new created material.

 

Thank you!!

Drew,

You may be able to use a Wall Material Region with Cut Finish Layers from Parent Object and then locate your corner molding over that.

The attached pic is just to demonstrate the technique - you would need to resize and locate as required.
