Solid glass door

Post by Donald Thomson »

Is it possible to make a door that is solid glass using the door/drawer editor? I am designing an entertainment center and some of the doors are tinted glass.

Thanks!!

Don,

You can create a door to the thickness you would like, then select it, click File, then Export Selection. This will export that part as an .hsf file. This file can be brought into the Display Part Editor, changed to transparent, and colors modified to make it look like tinted glass. Then saved as a part you can add to a cabinet just like you would a sink or faucet. You will need to associate the part to the cabinet for it to be saved with the cabinet. You can also select it, right click, and select Scale Object to resize it.

You're welcome. For those who have access to our video training, this link http://www.thermwood.com/OnlineTraining ... ategory:87 will give you the two videos regarding a glass shelf. The first of how to create it, the second on how to install it.
