Rosco2017 Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 I'm creating a fireplace mantel out of a counter top and cabinets, and I'm going to convert that into a millwork symbol and add it to my library. I can't figure out how to make the back side of the mantel (the side that will sit against the fireplace) flat with no moldings. I know I can click on the counter top and turn the molding off on that back edge, but how do I stop the molding on the back of the cabinets? Attached is a pic of the mantel and the plan.

Dennis_Gavin Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 don't use a molding on the cabinets but instead use a molding polyline. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg_NY61 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Ross, I set this up for you, I couldn't find one molding you used under the crown. There is a copy there just convert that to that molding pline and add that missing molding, after that use point to point and put it in place and use Transform Replicate in wall elevation and move that molding in place.

Rosco2017 Posted May 22, 2016 Author Share Posted May 22, 2016 Greg, Thank you for taking the time to help me (once again lol) I figured it out and was going to share it. I just can't figure out how to export it as a library file. That molding you couldn't fine I created in chief. My builder buys that profile in bulk, so I wanted to be able to have an exact model. Thank you again for helping me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
