kitchen - corner upper shelf issue

[bmcpherson]

How do you make the shelf create a corner? Is this an option? It wastes so much time to have to draw it myself and create an actual object. I really need some help, because I have to do this often! Thank you!

Have you searched the Chief website? I see this, maybe it will help

I am NOT talking about a corner CABINET. I am talking about a SHELF. And yes, I did that first and it wasn't helpful.

What do you mean by "...create a corner"?

But your subject title and your question leads off by "suggesting," at least to me, that you would want the shelf to create a corner shelf. I'm confused...happens a lot.

The shelf tool creates a rectangle only. If you want a clipped corner, or a shelf that runs into , say a 45 degree corner, then you have already alluded to the unfortunate fact that it will need to be created manually. If you need to do it often, as you say, then place examples of your manually created shelves in the library for quick access and easy editing. Just use a counter top, adjust its properties to match that of a shelf, group select it, block it, add it to library. Then all you need to do in the future is place it, unblock it, and adjust its shape.
