Why does Platform Trim not work on Platforms?
I've been looking around everywhere on how to fix this bug. I just started to use platforms in build mode, when I tried to change its color using the platform trims, it wouldn't change. I would get a...

@TylarTyger Hello! It might be helpful if you could take some screenshots of your build so we have a better idea of what's happening.
In the meantime, when you select the platform trim you want, hover over the floor of the platform and click there to add it; just as if you were placing carpet or tile. As for the stairs, I've found they can be really tricky. Make sure you have a full brick of space at the top and bottom of the stairs for sims to enter / exit. Also, the stairs landing can't be off the lot. Hope that helps but if it doesn't, let us know.
- @JonaO703 The stairs was very, very helpful! I'll try to upload some screenshots of what's happening
Has there been a solution to this? I have the exact same problem :/
Hi there
I am also having the same issue. I have no mods or cc in my game. To show the issue I built a 3x3 room. I raised it using the foundation tool. Then when I go into platform trims to try and apply it, it doesn’t show up and I get the “nothing to change” error. The same thing happens if I just put a platform down, no trim appears and I get the error message.
I also downloaded a house from the gallery that was raised and had platform trim around it. When I placed the lot, the trim disappeared and it was the blank grey.
@toastymissy @Pepperkakor1234 Hello! There is a difference between foundations and platform trims. When you build a room and raise the foundation, you are able to add / change the foundation. When you build a platform, you are also able to raise it like a regular room and give it a foundation. However, if you want to add a viewable trim, you need to click the middle of the platform to select it and then use the up / down arrows to raise or lower the platform itself. Once the platform is raised, then you can add a visible platform trim. I created a short video to demonstrate this and shared it on YouTube here.
I hope this helps!
I'm on PS4 and I have this problem.
I downloaded a bar lot that had curved corners on the deck. I was just going to use the exterior trim to cover it up change the color and the platform trim glitches through. So I delete the corners and start from scratch corner curve platform, match flooring, then I try foundation trim, nope. exterior trim, glitches, delete, redo. Platform trim, successful bloop noise, no change though, click again "no changes needed" I try a different trim same result. Rinse repeat, no change. Now other, on there own platforms do the same.
