Stefan,

If you use Detached Toe Kick, eCabinets deducts that toe kick Height from your total cabinet height. To make your cabinet work the way you want with Detached toe
Add the box height you want 775mm to the Toe kick height you want 102mm which equals 887mm. That is what your total cabinet height is.
Make your cabinet height 877mm and use a detached toe of 102 mm and when you place your door using your reveals it will be 765 mm
When you place this cabinet in a room it will be 102mm off the floor.

I have attached you cabinet with the proper settings

Kerry, thanks for the cabinet. It does prove your point. I'll use this as a seed cabinet to start the rest of my basic setup. I haven't really lost that feeling yet that there is something \"mystic\" going on, but it's starting to clear up.

Now I'm off on the quest adding euro hinges and hafele eclipse slides. Count on me getting back with my next beginner question soon. :)

Thanks guys, support doesn't get any better than this!!

Stefan,

Here is another method that you might be more comfortable with.
Set your cabinet height to 775mm
Under construction settings/ Toe Kick tab enter a value of 0 for toe kick height and depth and then select Detached toe,
Now in Preferences go to Define Standard Dimensions/ Base Cabinet Mounting Height and enter a value of 102mm
This should give you the cabinet size door size and mounting height that you are looking for.
