TopagnaOverlook Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 I'm trying to use glass doors at the top of a full-size cabinet, but the "glass doors" checkbox is disabled. My plan file is 32MB and I've already used the "save as" cleanup, so I zipped it. House3.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it were available that would change ALL the doors on the cabinet not just the top ones. Make a copy of the door style in user library and name it so you can identify it in the materials tab. Change the panel material there. Since you're cabinets appear to all be painted instead of using the default it's likely you need to change the species for the door frame too. I just used a framed door panel for now since that door is not on my system. Might look into taking advantage of using defaults more, also might want to purge your plan materials and merge some. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopagnaOverlook Posted February 7, 2020 Author Share Posted February 7, 2020 (edited) Thanks Mark, Editing the materials on my copy of the symbol worked great! And thanks for reminding me to use defaults to save lots of time painting materials.

HarmonCA Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 I've tried all of the view options, but I just realized that if I use CA core cabinet it will modify to a glass panel with no problem, using Cabico MDF door style shows the different material at the panel but do transparency??

That's because the panel doesn't go all the way through the door. You would have to use a 5 pc MDF door from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
