BlueEnergy Posted October 11 Share Posted October 11 Is there a setting or an easy way to automatically have Corner Boards on the Exterior? We always install them and but the siding to them, would like them shown on the elevation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBCooper Posted October 11 Share Posted October 11 You can try using the "auto place corner boards" tool. It should place a corner board at most of the exterior corners and if it misses any you can just drop them in manually. I wouldn't bother doing this until the floor plan is pretty close to done though. You might also need to edit the top and bottom heights manually in some situations but X18 seems to do a better job than the older versions. In X18, you can also set the corner board to be recessed to the sheathing but you can't do that in any of the earlier versions: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which means that you should have the "auto place corner boards" tool but you won't be able to show them recessed to the sheathing. You can either manually draw them in, add a note or detail to your plans, or upgrade to X18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
