door editor - make matching drawer

Post by Ray Jorgensen »

I need to make 5 piec drawer fronts. I've done this before quite a while ago and I'm remembering there was a box to check to make matching drawer front, when designing the door.

Am I getting forgetful in my old age or just blind?

Thanks

Wally,

Have you upgraded to the lasted version? It's not there on the door side. If I go into the drawer side of it and pull up a conastoga drawer, then there is a button to create matching door. That doesn't make a lot of sense but it's there. It's just on a 5 piece, not available on MDF or slab. Slab I understand, why not MDF? I don't do those, but it makes sense to me to make a counter part.

Ray,

Make sure your Display DPI is set to Normal .
I think any other setting causes problems with the way the buttons display in eCabinets.
Your Create Matching Drawer button may be missing in the dialog box because of this.

Thanks for the help guys. After I got home last night I got to thinking - it hurts to do that at times - when I said it was on the drawer side, I was using the conistoga as a sample. Just checked and sure enough, If I choose conistoga doors the button is there to create the matching drawer. Not avaliable on any other sources. I was looking for it using the thermwood directory.
