  1. Yeah, you had your base cabs misaligned. There is a very small difference in the alignment of the faces. This is why it is so helpful to post plans to get quick answers.
  2. I must be missing something again. Didn't we give you the answer? And if that answer does not work, why don't you post the plan?
  3. Yep, I bet that is it. Nice call KT.
  4. I must be missing something. I do not see the seam between 2 cabinets that are butted up against one another. Would you mind posting your plan and a pic...... here is what mine looks like
  5. Red rocks, awesome venue, wish I saw it, of corse I was only 6 years old back then.
  6. It takes me 4 clicks, a chant AND a few choice words...... and then it works perfectly....... most of the time........ if there is a full moon......
  7. the line style of the ref set is controlled by the ref set. Change the line style via your ref set. Preferences has nothing to do with it. Do you know how to access your ref set?
  8. I figured that is what you wanted, FYI, I can lock the layer in 3 clicks, SELECT OBJECT<HIT 9<CLICK LOCK LAYER, I am assuming with ACAD you can do it in two clicks, SELECT OBJECT<LOCK LAYER, if this is what you want, I get it, 2 clicks vs my 3 clicks......... I am always for quicker ways of doing things.
  9. That my friend is almost pure genius...... great solution. The only thing I might change is 1/16" left depth and and 24" right depth..... but I am quibbling...... Nice job JC, best solution I have ever seen.
  10. Bill, how about angle cabinet 24"-3"=21" wide with a 3" deep front cabinet with no toe kick. Would that solve toe kick issue......... But I bet that creates a countertop issue in plan view....... Just thinking.....
  11. I think I like everything about your solution except for toe kick and that can be solved with solid, thanks Bill.
  12. Yep, I see if now. Minor problem, toe kick does not show correctly on right side at wall. So there are actually 2 cabs. You'd 1/16" deep cab and the angled front. The 1/16" cab is actually in front of angled cab and the angled cab is actually 24"-1/16" = 23-15/16" wide.
  13. Bill, I like what I see in plan view. Nice call on 1/16" deep cab. Questions: How did you build tie kick? Psolid? What creates dashed Line for the angled cab at wall? I assume this is custom countertop?
  14. No help here. This is the precise reason I use pmolding for the shower wall finish.
  15. Yeah, that is one method, but I have to say, I have never used that method, it seems like there are faster and more efficient ways of doing that. I am not disparaging the method..... just different and more efficient ways of doing the same thing......
  16. Thanks JC, you made my point, I do not think he is referring to what you are referring to. He must be clearer on how he would use it. Sent you an email a minute ago..... you up for golf this Thursday at the RBI at 12:30?
  17. Let me rant just a bit, you made a statement that is very unclear. I think that if you really wanted to make a difference, you would explain how you would use this tool. As I think about your request, there are many different methods/applications you could be referring to. I am confused as to what and how you would use this tool. The muckity mucks at CA are constantly requesting that we be clear on what we are trying to do. I think if we were clearer on our desires, they will probably attempt to figureatededed out what you want. You would be doing us all a huge favor if you were more explicit in your desires. I bet that whatever you want, we can all use.
  18. errrr, I think there is.... I think the multiple copy might work, and I think there is something else that I do not use......... but a hot key..... you might be right on that..... nuts...... you are probably thinking of an ACAD tool...... CA does not have what you are looking for....... I think thE multiple copy key is as close as you are going to get...... you know if Doug Park was not on his cross country bike ride, he would be all over this request....... hey Doug, when are you getting back?
  19. I agree with Joe. You cannot do it with out a bit of futzing around. I disagree with JC when it comes to toe kick. I would still make cabinet 3/4" deep, shorten height of cabinet the height of toe kick, raise cabinet off floor height of toe kick, eliminate toe kick, make toe kick out of a solid.
  20. Todd, after watching the vid, can you now build the dormer? When you built the initial dormer, you did not build it the way I would build it. If you are asking me to explain why yours is not working, I cannot explain it. All I know, is by using the method I use, I can make it work. If you build the dormer the way I suggest, and it still does not work, post what you built and I will look at it. I do not know how to do it any other way. I do not know how to do it using the method you initially used. You say you need some clarification, I do not know what clarification you need. I can not help you if you build it the way you initially built it. I am sure there are many other users that can make it work the way you did it, but I can not.
