How do I make an arched top part using the part editor. I know how to make a part with an arched bottom by defining the arc and then cutting it away. For the arched top, I can define the arch that I want, but how do I cut away outside of the arc instead of inside?

Thanks, Mark

Is there a way to change the pattern/grain direction in the new countertop function? I know I could use a display cube, but the countertop function is sooo... easy to use.

What's the most efficient way to make columns for cabinet corners (or for fireplace surround). I'm not concerned with fluting or anything fance, just say a 4x4 column with base and top molding. I'm also not too concerned about cutlist or drawing accuracy, just a nice looking picture.

Thanks, Mark

Jack,

Click on the Load Item icon (hand in a filer folder), then pick \"display panel\".

Dan, what software would you suggest? Mark

Did you accidentally select hide pulls in the room layout? (right click in room..show/hide...cabinet/pulls) Mark

Thanks Dan. The files are on the Yahoo server but some get damaged. On my fourth call to Yahoo I got someone a bit more helpful, and although no one still seems to know the cause of the problem, they directed me to Yahoo's online file manager where I can individually load files rather than publish ...

I realize this is off topic, but there seem to be a few computer gurus hanging around here. (Moderators - if its too far off base, feel free to whack it)

Anyway, is anybody using or know anything about Yahoo Sitebuilder software?

I used it a few years ago to first make up a website. Now I'm trying ...

Thanks Glenn. That worked. It's great to be able to get overnight help from down under.

The shelves work great, but they don't save with the cabinet? When I place it in a room they're gone, and they're gone when I re-open the cabinet file?? Any ideas?

That's it Dan -thanks.

OK, I 've got the resizing figured out, but I don't think this will do what I want. I'm trying to put an opening through the wall, not the cabinet. Like a window, but no frame or glass, just an opening. How is this done?

Thanks, Mark

How do you adjust the size of a cut-out in a wall?
I can place the cut-out, but its 10x10 and I can't find how to re-size.

Thanks, Mark

Being a newbie, I probably shouldn't even chime in with Dan and Kerry, but...

Couldn't you define a material to be used just for the decks and cost it at say $.65 / sq in (your 15.50 / lin in / 24\" deep) and then set all the other construction material to 0? This would give you $15.50 per lin in ...

Thanks Dan - I won't do it! (More likely scenario is my 11 year old daughter descides to unplug the USB hard drive to download a song to her MP3, but same result) The addl RAM and virtual memory setting has helped a lot already so I'll leave it alone.
