    ericepv's post in Tab pull on cabinet drawers/doors was marked as the answer   
    Not sure if this is the same hardware you used but this is what I got using a stock pull:
    Core Catalog / Architectural / Hardware/ Cabinet Hardware / Pulls / Integrated Pulls
    Once you specify it, check on 'Vertical Position' or 'Horizontal Position', 'Distance from Top' or 'Distance from Edge' - enter 0" or whatever value meets your needs.
     

     
    Click on 'Edit...' if you need to rotate it.

    Just do it as a railing. Specify the height in the 'Newels/Balusters' tab and in the 'Rail Style' tab, select 'Solid' and in the 'Wall Types' tab select a block wall.

    Try drawing a regular wall (you can make it narrow) and then install a large window with a very thin frame. You can then add your mullions with the standard tools.

    You can specify separate materials for the upper and lower sections of a pony wall. Use a glass shower wall at the top or just a framed wall with windows.

    You can render it in Standard style or if you want to use Vector, just delete the upper corner board then drag the lower one up.

    In the 'General' tab of DBX for your door, specify 'Percent Open" in the 'General' section.

    Open the DBX for the cabinet and go to the 'Door/Drawer' tab, from there you can make the adjustment to the 'Door handle'.

    ericepv's post in What am I doing wrong with the adjust sunlight? was marked as the answer   
    I made a few adjustments:
     
    Camera settings - Turn off Bloom, Set Ambient Occlusion to 25%, Set lighting for 'Default Light Set'
    Rendering Techniques - In Std tab set Ambient to 0. In PBR, set 'Camera Exposure' to .15, 'Daytime backdrop Intensity' to 25.
     

     
    This should get you started. From here, you can adjust the lighting, sunlight and shadows and also work on your material properties.
    Hope this helps -Eric

    ericepv's post in Reflective Metallic Drape was marked as the answer   
    Thanks for the tips. After much experimentation, I found that assigning a reflective material class with high reflection value works best.
