Noticed something in new build

Post by Donald Thomson »

I have created a dummy wall so I can associate cabinets to it for alignment purposes. I put the cabinets on the BACK side of the wall.

I am using the context menu to adjust the size of the cabinets. I select a cabinet, context to the adjust cabinet features and then change the height (adjust top), and depth (adjust front). After it goes through its gyrations of changing the cabinet size and completes, my cabinets have disappeared. I need to go to Wall View and select front then back to get them to reappear. This is repeatable and happens on each and every cabinet.

This doesn't seem to be right.

Don,

Thanks for the job, it allowed me to reproduce what you were seeing. It appears to require the items to be associated to, but not physically touching, and on the back side of the wall. We will get it on the list and get it resolved. However, for now you can simply build your wall with the build direction facing the cabinets (the thick black line at the top of the wall) and all will work as expected. You can also just reverse the build direction by: selecting the wall, Right-Click -> Wall Options -> Reverse Build Direction. Hope this helps.

Thanks Scott. I did the reverse build direction option.
