Mouldings Plugins is a set of PIO and tools to manage trim and woodwork. See this post, here in the forum, containing some fine renderings courtesy of @cberg and @Greg G In this update: Added Hollow Stainless Steel sections (imperial and metric standards) profiles. Added WindsorONE profiles. Now the profiles amount to approximately 7200! Library dialog enhanced: • Profiles's thumbnails shows both imperial and metric sizes. • Profiles's thumbnails are visibly improved (especially in VW2025). • Search field added. • Last used… and Preferred… added to the tree list. Search / Replace menu: you can search / replace the profiles used in all moulding objects on the drawing according to what you set in the replace dialog. Browse document profiles (button) now opens with the last used profile. Frames Array: now you can set styles and rails thickness to 0 to repeat only the frame. Fixed some forbidden char in folder/files naming. Other bug fixing and interface improving. Mouldings Plugins update is free for registered users, and available through Gumroad® or Payhip® at 25€ It is also available a free demo version where most of the plugins parameters are disabled. You can unlock it at any time buying a license key through the above mentioned Gumroad® or Payhip® markets.

I have an accurate contour data set but want to make it smaller for export to a GPS, so how do I consistently trim the polylines off outside the green polygon - the split tool seems to work on some lines but not others, it's a poor version of AutoCAD's fence tool that's for sure. I managed to trim 50 line in one go a couple of time but the tool seems to stop working /only work on singles. I can do this in QGIS but it'd be nice to save the roundabout trip. I don't want to build a model in VW as I want get contours back in the same place as they appear now. System is VW2018.

Anyone noticed that the 'Trim' command seems to be broken or is it me??? When trying to trim lines in VW 2022, it doesn't seem to work. See attached screen recording. This has just started happening in VW 2022 - has never happened before. Screen Recording 2021-10-12 at 10.51.40.mov

I've used the extrude along path method to add molding to my model, but I haven't figured out how to trim it away from doors and openings. From what I've gathered, I have to select a closed "path" and molding profile and then extrude along path. Is there a different method for adding molding without having it blocking doorways and stair openings?

Hi all, I duplicated a previous window style and modified it to the way I want it. Everything's good except the trim doesn't show. Its class/layer is the same as all other windows, and if I replace this style with a different style that exists elsewhere in the project (and shows properly), this spot doesn't appear properly. I've attached a picture of the window I'm talking about (next to the door; it's a sidelight). This window can't be part of the "light" option of the door next to it since its sill is at a higher elevation. Cheers and thanks, Hunter

Currently I'm trying to figure out ways to modify the sweep I just created. I want to trim/cut a section of it off. However, if I convert the sweep to anything such as a solid, the sweep turns into a filled solid. How can I convert a sweep into a surface and thus trim the section off from the new surface?

In the image plan below you can see the trim at 3/4" for both window and cased opening. I see three issues here: 1/ the window, in blue trim is not on top of the drywall layer of the wall (the outside layer of the wall is the base plate which is below the window) Can I arrange this properly to 4 3/4" 2/The door in grey has trim which is inside the thickness of the drywall. Can I arrange this properly to 4 3/4" 3/ The wall cut line should be 4 3/4" also and the baseboard should have a thinner line shouldn't it? window_trim.vwx
