Tools for make you own profils and trim

[Kajvin - Robert W]

Hi Allan!
have you use the built-in tools to make your own trim and profiles to walls!
Look at the images below, but to make a profile I thin you have to take help with paper and penn to not get lost in the construction. But the tool works very well. I have try it!!

Hi Robert,

Yes I have - I did a bit of a tutorial on it in this post http://forums.turbofloorplan.com/index.php/topic,484.0.html.
The profiles in the two images attached (which you may have seen before) were my own design too.
I have started a PDF tutorial on this too as the profile designer tool can also be used to create other things.

Hi Allan
Even I use this program a lot, I still find somthing to explore, but I looking forward to next update of the program. But if i had arond $ 3k over somtime I think I will go for the Envisioneer 6 Constructions with plugins, a lot of things you can do with the program.

Hi Robert,

I would not mind Env also but the cost certainly puts me off too!!  At the same time Envisioneer does not do anything more in 3D than TFP does - as far as I can see the are identical. There are things different, inside the walls for example, frame editing etc but in the 3D rendering you do not see that.  The main difference with Env is in the 2D area, construction drawings and printing. The type of work I do is all visualisation so I dont really need the construction drawings. Would be nice to have though for the odd occasion.
