Lost the appliance button

[Nick Sollecito]

I lost the Appliance button in the cabinet editor. All the other buttons are there and it is still in the Ecabinets file when I look in Windows Explorer. Any one experience this?
Thanks!

Nick,

You can only place appliances in the Custom Layout area. By design, the appliances tab is hidden when going into the cab/assm editor.

Ah yes, it is there in the custom layout section. In the past I thought I had added appliances into an assembly when I was in the cabinet editor but I guess I did it in custom layout.
Thanks for setting me straight.

Nick,

No problem. You may have be thinking of display objects. There is a microwave and other items in there that you may have used in the past. If you want or need one of the appliances as a display object, you do have the option to export them from a layout {File -> Export Selection}. This creates an .hsf file that you can load into the Display Part Editor re-texture and save as a display object. Then you would be able to use/load it any where you want.

I think that's it.
The mind is a terrible thing to waste.
Thanks!
