Hi,

I was thinkg of the trim to roof/shell which is cool when you have working composites and BM's. We always use SEO for trimming walls to roofs. Anyone using both or just trim? Caveats? I haven't had the time to compare the IFC output yet...

I personally like SEo because it's working on pretty much everything.

Here's a good overview by @James B of the various methods and their advantages/disadvantages.

Yes I know about James vid. I was just curious.

The vid lacks the IFC consequences when using different methods. I recall it's about skin quantities but can't spend time to investigate that now.

You're right that it doesn't say anything about IFC. Maybe someone who uses IFC regularly can jump in here.
