Crown around faceframes

Post by Joe Murphy »

I have an upper bookcase where the right hand frame is outboard of the cabinet side to recieve a paneled end.
How do I get the crown molding to go around the frame and not the cabinet?

Thanks,
Joe

Gidday Joe,Highlight the cabinet(if part of an assembly)go to construction settings>add mouldings>set "front" right scribe to thickness of your panel thats going on the right end plus any distance that you want it to sit "past" it>press O.K. >then go to view looking down on the top (using the appropriate arrow key)highlight the right end moulding>right click and set "move increment" to the same distance as you set right scribe in "add mouldings">then use the appropriate arrow key to move the right moulding out to the right.Should do the trick.Maybe Dan or Kerry or someone else has an easier way to do it,if they do I'd like to know
