Custom Layout glitch

When I am loading a cabinet in Custom Layout and choose to resize the width of the cabinet, the cabinet height decreases. Is anyone else having this problem??

Are you using the \"Change Size\" button on the \"Load Item\" dialog? I just tried it that way and had no problems.

Dan,
If you have a closer look at the picture, you will see that the cabinet(s) on the end have their grain oriented from top to bottom and not left to right. I think that totally confused the tessalation generator in the quantum drive motor.

Ben,
Sorry for that one...

This has happened to me with at least two different cabinet designs, but it doesn't do it with every cabinet design. I am attaching the file for the cabinet that is shown in the picture in my previous post. This cabinet shrinks wheather I increase or decrease it's width.

Nope, still don't happen for me Ben. I add one to the room without changing anything then added a second, changing the width to 48\".

It sure did change height on me.

I don't get it Dan. I just did the same thing you did but I'm still having the problem. I don't know why it would be OK on your machine but not work on mine. Anybody have any ideas?

Ben

I can reproduce this and have passed it along to the programmers. Sorry for the inconvenience.

My question is...why can everyone but me reproduce the problem?

Here is what I'm doing:

1. Create a wall
2. Insert cabinet \"as is\"
3. Insert same cabinet but this time, click the \"Change Size\" button in the \"Load Item\" dialog.
4. Set the width to 48\" and leave all other dimensions as is.

Are these the exact steps the rest of you are using?

This is the result of saved cabinet in a older version (happened with cabs with detached toes). The cabinet height was saved wrong. When you click on the cabinet in Load dialog, you see the height was 26.5\". However when you load the cabinet in cabe ditor, you see the height is 32\". Resave the cabinet in cabeditor and it will fix you change size problem in the Custom Layout Editor.

Awesome, thanks Rick

That answers my question...I saved it first.
