Add a Notch to a Countertop or Trim

The Edit Shape command allows you to carve a notch on surface items, such as countertops and soffits.

To add a notch to linear items, such as moldings, you must first combine their sections. See Combine linear item sections for more information.

Complete the following steps to use the Edit Shape command:

1. Point to the surface item that you want to add a notch to, right-click, and select Edit Shape.
   
   

2. Select a point, right-click, and select Notch from the Point Menu.
   
   

3. Move the pointer toward the inside of the section to create the notch.
   
   

4. Click to set the notch, or type values in the Placement box and press ENTER.
