Did we change how Dishwashers work?  Chief is no longer allowing me to place it 'in a cabinet'.  However I did notice that placing the dishwasher next to a cabinet extends the countertop across it without issue.  

I'm OK with this change if this is normal.  Is this a feature we can duplicate if we import objects as well?

Yes - the change was brought up in the X17 introductory video posted a few days ago.  The rationale being it better reflects how dishwashers are actually installed in the field -- between base cabinets in an empty space with countertop spanning across rather than the dishwasher as part of a base cabinet.

I saw in there presentation video from last week, that the DW is now a standalone, does not need a cabinet (which is how its supposed to be).  I believe she also said the countertop auto fills in.

 

Dang, Jim beat me to your question
