English Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I used to have a deck where my sunroom is now. Part of that deck was under the second floor that was supported by a beam. To separate the area that was under the second floor and the addition I added a wall (where the beam) is and made it invisible. I tried to add crown moldings to the sunroom but the molding would not display on that invisible wall. Any idea how I can get the molding to display?Thanks Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solver Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Model your beam with a soffit. They will accept molding like a wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

English Posted January 17, 2016 Author Share Posted January 17, 2016 Eric I have the room divider along the center of the soffit but one side does not join the crown molding correctly -- see screen shots. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlightDeck Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 I was thinking the same thing, from the room it would look perfect! Also my understanding is that at least one of the pieces should always extend to the wall, while the intersecting piece is trimmed carefully with a coping saw to join it. If instead they are mitred there can be visible gaps in the corners with expansion/contraction. I'm not sure which method the software uses, but I suspect it's a mitred corner. No idea what's happening in Alan's picture though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
English Posted January 19, 2016 Author Share Posted January 19, 2016 You are correct -- the only way to tell if it's not mitered is from above. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
