      Just wondering if anyone knows if there is a way to "transform" Molding from one to another via component options. For example, I have a cased opening that has molding "A" applied to it. Someone changes thier mind and wants molding "B" instead. Is there a way to have different profiles to select from in a pull-down-list in the components options?

        I don't believe there's anyway to have the molding literally transform into a different profile but here's the way I would handle this sort of thing. It applies to other things such as cabinet doors and hardware (door and drawer pulls).

        Create components of the molding options. So you'll have molding A as one component and molding B as another. Create two layers for them. One layer called "Molding A" and the second called "Molding B". Make the layer associations for the corresponding components. Then create different scenes each showing one option or the other.
