Countertop thickness
the countertop thickness is not displaying correctly. I have designed the countertop with a material thickness of 40mm but it displays as 20mm. if you hover over it shows as 40mm (counter pic) but still displays as 20mm (counter2 pic not the 40mm display cube). Is this a bug or am i doing something wrong?

Re: Countertop thickness
I don't know if its possible ( ecabs takes me far too long to design a kitchen) but is the benchtop at the correct height? IE is the benchtop actually sitting 20mm inside the cabinet?

Re: Countertop thickness
It has a 20mm overhang and its flush at the back so you would see the front edge as 40mm even if it was in the cab.

Re: Countertop thickness
Have you tried in elevation view to move the CT up and see if it is the right thickness??Steven Daws wrote:It has a 20mm overhang and its flush at the back so you would see the front edge as 40mm even if it was in the cab.

Re: Countertop thickness
Cant upload my job file i get an error my job file is too big (8,807kb zipped) i have removed all cabs not needed from the file but for some reason my job file size stays the same, any suggestions on reducing it?.
Look at the new pic with one of the lower cabs deleted. Note the 40mm display cube for the stone return.Wally Schneeberger wrote:Have you tried in elevation view to move the CT up and see if it is the right thickness??Steven Daws wrote:It has a 20mm overhang and its flush at the back so you would see the front edge as 40mm even if it was in the cab.

Re: Countertop thickness
Hi Steven
When I have something like that happen. Rather than getting stuck and not moving on.
I save that job and reopen it, and save under a different name.
Then I would either remake a new 40mm benchtop material in my materials in counter top stock and see if that loads.
Or create a single cabinet room an see if it reoccurs with that same material. If it does that will probably upload easily to the forum and others can check it out.
It might be a one off anomoly or ..... something else.
Sorry not much help but perhaps a way forward.
Which part of OZ are you from?

Re: Countertop thickness
Well there you go, mark you’re a legend.
I re made the top 5 times and it would not work. so i tried what you said and saved the job as something else, started a new job with 1 cabinet and put the Benchtop on it in 40mm and it worked. WTF
So i reopened the job under the new name re did the Benchtop and bang it works. I saved it back to its original name and no problems any more.

Try to ignore a lot of my posts. I try my hand at humour and generally fail

Re: Countertop thickness
That’s ok.
My father always said that if you make one person laugh in your lifetime then you have added to this world.
My wife always tells me that she doesn’t think that it counts if it’s you.
