Grain Direction for FF

Post by Adam DAgosto »

Hi.

I have a box (attached) that has the entire front of it closed up by using a Face Frame. I changed the material to plywood.

My question is, is there a way to change the direction of the grain? I can't seem to see a way to do that for the Face Frames. It's not a huge issue because I can just tell my builder what to do, but just for rendering, and of course learning how, I'd like to know if there's a way to do that.

I just want to have the grain going vertically, right now its horizontal.

Thanks guys.

Adam

I had this very same problem at about 2am this morning.

What I did in the end was to create a display panel and associate it to the cabinet.

Hope this helps

Use a stile instead of a rail.

Using a Display Panel is the best way to get the result you want. Just add one sized to the correct dimensions and associate it to the cabinet.
