Light switch
Is it possible to place a light switch on the cabinet instead of on the wall?

Re: Light switch
Hi Ruben, it is possible by using a Display Object. I don't have one, but I have a DXF file of a double plate if someone can convert it.

Re: Light switch
George,
I always notice lots of custom hardware/products in your image posts... do you model those externally and import them as STL files, then convert to HSF?
I've been bringing things in that way but I'm not sure I know how to get different colors/finishes applied to different surfaces of the HSFs.
Share some of your secrets with us

Re: Light switch
Hi Heath 
Yes I make most of them in a Cad program then turn them into Stl and put them in e-Cabinets like you said as HSF.
I find a picture on the web. then bring it into the Cad program and copy it.
If you need help on anything made in Cad let me know.

Re: Light switch
The STL files are brought into the Display Part Editor.  There you can change the finish and save it as a HSF file.
