detached toe

[Ralph Balanik]

Good afternoon,

Maybe a silly question, but is there a way to set a detached toe kick on the floor. It defaults to same height as the base cabinets instead of placing below the cabinet so I have to go into elevation view in order to set the height on every toe kick that I place. Thanks.

In the Item Window, click the down arrow on the item and choose Change Size. You can set the mount height there.

THank you Rick. Can that be locked in or do I have to change that every time I place a toe kick?

[Rick Deskins]

The default value for that is keep in Settings/Preferences. Click the Define Standard Dimensions button and change the "Base Cabinet Mounting Height" setting.

Rick ,
I always put my base cabinets on top of the toe kick so there is a reason why I don't want them at the same mounting height. I wasn't aware of the change mounting height option in the items menu so my solution is to change my methods a bit. I get ahead of myself and place cabinets before toe kicks when I am doing a custom layout. I will change my toe kick mounting height to zero, place a few in the room, size them, put them where they belong, and then place cabinets. After all, when I am on site doing an install that is the way I do it! Another senior moment brough to you by Ralph No offense to other seniors on the forum. Thanks again Rick.
