Mitering Molding
-
Hello everyone,
Just found this forum. I've been playing around with SU for a little while. I'm drawing a book case with cove molding around the top. I have the molding drawn and placed on the bookcase but can't figure out how to bring the corners together like a miter joint. Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks

Rob are you wanting to take the moulding around three sides?
It sounds like you need to use Follow Me.Place the moulding on a corner (your start point) select the three lines you require the profile to follow - Choose follow me and pick the moulding.
If this is what you need I would be happy to create a quick tutorial for you to follow if the above does not seem to make sense.

Dylan,

. Thanks a lot.

I thought it worked but I can only get the molding to go around 1 corner. Still need it on the other side. If it's not too much trouble a tutorial might be helpful. Thanks

Thanks Bob. That clears things up and I see what I was doing wrong.

Dear Rob46,
My pleasure, and I also learned a new trick with the Alt key too.

That is a really good video explaining Follow Me, thanks for the link Bob.
