How do you show an open drawer

Post by Donald Thomson »

I've searched and searched and even found some topics where people have asked how to show an open drawer but I've never seen an answer on how to show drawers open in eCabs. I've seen some designs done by the guru's here but - maybe this is a guarded secret? :?

Maybe one of the guru's could shed some light on this?

Here's what Kerry posted on Sep 10
When I display drawers opened I simply increase the minimum back inset for the drawer box by the same amount as the front negative inset that I add to open the drawer. If I use a -10" Drawer Front Inset I would then add 10" to whatever my drawer box Minimum Back Inset figure is. This keeps the cutlist correct. Hope this helps.

Thanks a million! :beer: :beer:

I didn't find that posting in any searches I tried. I need to learn how to use the search engine better.

Donald,

HERE is a link to the thread that posting came from.

I used the advanced search and typed in drawer for the keyword and Kerry Fullington as author.

You can also use +open +drawer in the search terms and find it. The + tells the search that this is a required word that must be in the results. If you use open drawer (without the +) you will find all posts that have either or both words (open, drawer, open drawer).
