molding polyline around inside corner
How can I make a molding polyline go around an inside corner. (or outside as well) See in the picture that there are two separate lines. Didn't I see something on this recently??

It's easy to do this with a 3D molding polyline. Draw it around the corner in plan view and break it where you want it to turn down. In an elevation, drag it down. Very easy.

Ah Ha. Didn't try that combination. Thanks Tommy!
However, now looking at the results it seems I might have
to do it with PS's and separate vertical PS's so I can miter the tile
joint. I did this years ago for my own bath render. Still good to know
how to do waht I asked for!
Thanks again.Dennis Gavin CR, CKBR

You're welcome Dennis. In general for me, I only use 3D molding polylines as a last resort. They do have their advantages in certain situations like this. I think they're hard to work with for you have to move it separately everywhere there's a break. What a pain. They also don't really show in plan view either except as a line which is hard to see. You can move it in plan view too but a standard molding polyline is MUCH easier to work with.
