Paint inside of cubbies?

[sweetmelissa]

If I want the inside of the cubbies to be a wood stain, how the heck would I do that? Is it possible? I know you can do the "backs" of cabinets a different color with x12, but can I do all the sides/back? If I use shelves and partitions to build it can I do it??

Sure you just need some sort of a surface to paint.  Wall Material Region, Back splash, Polyline Solid.

That will take forever! There are 5 sides to every cubbie! Maybe I could copy and paste, but oh my goodness.  Perhaps I should just make a note!

You can build that with a single cabinet.  Just make opening sections, remove the shelves, and then set the cabinet interior material to whatever you want.  The ability to specify a different cabinet interior material is new in X12.

I did build it as one cabinet, but when I tried to use the material painter to paint the inside, it didn't work.  Opening the cabinet and adjusting the interior material worked perfectly.  Thanks!
