I have been doing some extra modelling to a residential house just to learn, so I am aware that it could be modelling overkill. And also modelling in place and its associated file weight problems. However, I'm playing and learning.
So here's my problem.
I'm trying to sweep a cornice profile around the edge of a raked ceiling, but am hitting all sorts of problems. On the flat ceilings I had a 10mm horizontal offset for the wall plaster. But when i go to place the cornice around the bottom edge of the raked ceiling, the profile mirrors and flips, and offsets both horizontally and vertically. With very strange values. I did it all in 3d view, and even created a workplane along the raked ceiling.
I was expecting to simply replicate the sweep for the flat ceilings, but this is throwing wobblies.
Yes a wall sweep might work, but along the rake?...Don't think so. and that would also mean creating more wall types, purely for differing heights of cornice sweeps anyway.
What approach do people do who want to model the cornice in? Especially on a raked ceiling?
