I hope I used the right words. Essentially, I am trying to do a board and batten siding and i am keeping things as simple as possible. I am jut drawing lines. in the lines section there is a paint called steel that has the double lines I am looking for, I can rotate them and they get close, although i can't get them to rotate quite vertically perfect. I have to do it for each surface individually and i would not mind having a good board and batten line selection. How do I create that and where should I save it for Softplan to find it? Where in a library can i find it that i might have overlooked? 

 

Thanks!

The secret is to keep the paint really simple if the pattern repeat is 6", then only draw a 6" section ...
