The Trim library is currently under the ‘Paint’ library in your Renoworks Pro Visualizer. You can read more about overlap of libraries here. Adding trim should be done at the right stage of the Masking process as the software works in layers (link).

The right time to work on Trim is after you have masked the siding and before you mask the windows (Just like you would on a real job!) Using the paint, trim or wall tool follow these steps:

  1. Draw a square or rectangle beyond the window to the thickness you would like your trim to be.
  2. Cut out the window
  3. Go to the ‘Visualize’ tab and you can apply different paint colours to represent the trim.

The window will always apply as the top most layer and all you will see is the colour around the window looking like the trim.

The process of uploading an image and designing it is called Masking in your Renoworks Pro Visualizer. The Masking process takes place under the “Draw” tab. Before applying products to your clients home, you must mask the image to define various layers of the home. 

Before you get started, keep in mind that the software works in layers – what you mask first will appear as the bottom most layer. After that, each mask will go on top of the previous layer.

This rule applies to everything except doors and windows. They will appear on top of all the layers (except foreground) automatically. We recommend that you plan the order in which you will do the Masking before you get started. Eventually this will become second nature!

It can look something like this:

  • Siding
  • Masonry
  • Roof
  • Trim
  • Windows
  • Doors
  • Foreground

A few things that will be good to know when you start:

  • To mask an area you have to first select the category it fits under
  • To start masking you will have to draw around the perimeter of an area clicking every time you want to change direction and ending where you started to complete a layer
  • Every point you clicked on to change direction is movable, so don’t worry if your lines aren’t straight

The Renoworks Pro Visualizer works in layers (link). As a good practice we recommend you follow the layers rule and mask the windows and doors last, however, this rule applies to everything except windows and doors and you can mask them at any point of the masking process.

Masking tools can only trace shapes with corners.However, when Masking unique shapes, draw a large box around the whole window. Select your product to apply and then click Visualize. Note that you may need to adjust the position. To do that, go back to the Draw tab, adjust the box and then go back to the Visualize tab.
