philiplaird Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Short of using the Soffit Tool, is there a way to place exterior trim (1x4) at the rake and eave soffits on a building with siding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solver Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 You are asking about a frieze? Experiment with a Custom Backsplash. Tip: They may be selected, then reflected, copied and moved to another wall etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philiplaird Posted June 17, 2022 Author Share Posted June 17, 2022 Thanks for your reply. The "Custom Backsplash" tool creates a polygon and uses the polygon control settings. I find it easier to use the "Soffit" tool as it uses Size/Position control settings which make it easier to size and place accurately. Soffits can also be replicated using the "Transform/Replicate Object" dialog making it easy to copy and place on other walls. I was just wondering if I missed something in the 2023 upgrade. It seems like this would be something used frequently when rendering house plans. You can "Auto Place" corner boards, but not soffit trim or brick frieze!
