Hi Dermot, i understand maybe no one has asked, but is this not typical cabinet construction? If so why doesnt ca follow standard construction practices, if one was building a full overlay cabinet would they not have fillers flush with doors? I have not made any feature requests, perhaps because so many do and nothing happens, does not seem worth the time.

Hi Mark, i do have x9 and have doors turned on but it does not make a difference at all in plan, no change?

I meant do the as builts in ca .. dam auto correct

Thanks Mark, I did not know x9 could show doors in plan. I am connected up with a custom cabinet manufacturer and we do full house renovations. I do the as built plans in Canada then do the design and pm for the Reno. For us this this is a standard to have these fillers flush with doors. is this so unusual? If so why does ca not address this? Without these flush fillers all cabinet jobs look amateur!

Here is an example in the corner.

Door is a framed door or shaker

When placing cabinets near walls or butting perpendicular against other cabinets using a full face frame cabinet it is typical to have a filler flush with cabinet door. how is this done with ca? it also would be nice for ca to show cabinet doors in plan, it's like they don't exist? David

Only problem with no mulling is the casing on the inside overlaps and looks like crap...ca missed this one.

I actually tried that and it works until I mull it, then the door jamb takes on the interior colour of white not black.

i did turn on exterior casing which extends jamb but when i mull window above and door then the door jamb now turns white. Also not every door or window needs a casing, lots of times in stucco walls there are no casing just the jamb/frame, ca does not allow the jamb to extend to exterior of wall without a jamb, in my opinion this is a software issue as it will not allow real life conditions to occur.

Here is the plan again, hope it works. door jamb plan2.zip

Hi everyone, i am trying to put a transom window above a door and have no exterior casing. Apparently ca ties the jamb to the case so if you uncheck the ext case then ca removes the jamb and the framing shows thru,,,how stupid is that? So i tried making the case 3/4" to replicate a jamb but when i stack a window on top and try and mull window and door it will not allow me to make the exterior a different colour than the interior. Seems like a defect in the program, it would allow a door without a case? I have attached a sample plan to show. I dont believe this was a problem in earlier editions of ca, thoughts? door jamb plan.zip

Derek, I currently have about 30-40 models , multiples of one design, you only load 4-5 per page, right now it is challenging to find the one I want, having some folders would really help manage these. David

I opened another plan and had no problems, so I took a look at this plan and I had a circular stair wall and after I deleted the wall if worked great.

Im running x9 and all of the sudden when i try and do any change while i have the 3d view open ca spins for 5-10sec i cant do anything, any thoughts? I am running a new laptop with a 960m gtx nvidia card, I7... David

I want to differentiate between window and door casing in the material list. They are really both the same but i want to separate them for pricing purposes. I have selected a different casing type for each but they are both 3.5" wide, ca seems to only show 1x4 casing in material list? What can i do, do i have to make one of them only 3" to get a different value in materials list? \ Seems silly that you can choose a different casing and the material list lumps them together? David

I was at a customers home and did a design right on the spot for a Reno and shared with them a 360 link. when they opened link and had phone in portrait mode and selected full screen it fills their iPhone entire screen but I only get the top of my screen??? very frustrating, come on ca!

Anyone experiencing issues with display once you select view on iPhone? I have an iPhone6, if I go to full screen mode while holding phone in portrait it does not go full screen just at top, see pic once I turn it to landscape I still get bar on bottom also I can't get out of this mode after sometimes i I can get full screen to display but very rarely,, seems like it has lots of bugs still? Ca says it's an apple issue, but I put google glasses app on my phone and it works perfectly with google glasses, not sure why ca is having so much trouble with this.. I get dbl vision with ca's google view. David

I saved hw in a different direction and applied it to treads so the hw would run across treads but when I did this the hw changed from running across landing to running perpendicular to landing.

I guess so!

If I make Newell 0 won't I lose Newels at beginning of stairs? what happened to new and improved stairs in x9? david

Does anyone know how to control whether ca puts a newel post at wall of landing? I know there is an option for railings not on landing. Also how does one control where the newel posts go, they are hanging over my stair and landing? I also tried changing direction of hardwood, but ca does not allow me to change landing and treads to be different? What am i missing?

i just downloaded today, i didnt see this one, what is the name?

Does anybody have a undermount trough sink? I am surprised that ca doesnt even have a retangular undermount i could stretch??? David

The 360 view is a stationary view from a point in space.. so I don't think this will work like you think..it will show exterior of model but only what it can see from camera view point.
