Are you using a continuous polyline at the corner or 2 individual ones?

You don't have to place them manually as there ways to make them properly and automatically.
In the room specs dbx, locate "moldings", you will find the crown molding, chair rail and base molding there.
As to your second molding (the one running across the door) ;
Click room> make room molding polyline icon (this is located at the bottom left corner of your screen) >set height > double click polyline> add new >ok
I hope this will do it.Last edited by Chiefer; 03-13-2007 at 05:14 PM.

Click OUTSIDE but near the exterior wall (any wall), that shoud select the "Outside room" i.e. whole house will be shaded, then click down the edit bar on made room molding polyline. adjust the hight then go to the other Tabs in the DBX to set you molding profile.
the key point here is to select the whole house by clicing outside the building parameter.
You can repeat this process and add the molding at the door level, then using the edit tools in Plan view, you can break the molding around the doors or windows.Last edited by Ash; 03-13-2007 at 05:43 PM.

I figured it out. For the molding on the middle of the wall it works as ash has explained. but for roof such as a gable roof you have to do the molding on the roof default box. then go to each corner and break and extend to the other side of the wall. and that should do it.
thanks for all the replies.
