suggestions for next update

Post by Jason Stephenson »

Just a few suggestions that we would like in the next update if that was possible, is there any chance of assosiating 3 holes to a blind dado or any holes for that matter! When you add a corner door to a corner cabinet is there any chance of haveing the option whether or not to assosiate a hinge say to a left hinged door but put the hinges on the right door! and last 1 when you cut out the centre of a door and put a rebate in the back when it is machining to cut the solid panel out then do the rebate without doing the rebate first!

Thanks Jason

Jason,

HERE is a link to a thread from November about the holes associated with a dado. There are a lot of people who would like this feature added.

Are you trying to make a corner bi-fold door like this?

Jason,

Yes it can be done.

In the Door Drawer Front Editor click to select the left or right opening (which ever side you want to hinge from) and place the appropriate door (Left or Right Hinge) with the hole pattern associated to it. Now Select the other side opening and place a left or right hinge door in that opening. After the second door is place click on it to select it and then in the Item Window under the hinge tab use the drop down menu for your hinge hole pattern and select Remove from Selected part. this will remove the hinge holes from the second door.

You of course will have to set your proper reveals to make your piano hinge work.

Don't try to use the Lazy Susan door as you can't associate hinges to that door.
