drop wall cabinet door face lower than carcass

[Frenchy1]

is it possible to drop wall cabinet door face lower than carcass to create a finger pull ?

I'm not near computer to check but I believe that if in the DBX select the bottom separation and change the reveal to minus(-) the # you want it to hang down by. Say -1"

My standard detail for wall cabinets is to raise the deck 1-1/4", make the door overhang the deck bottom that same amount, and place a 3/4" x 1-1/8" light rail under the deck flush to the front, right behind the door.  It works to house and mask my undercab LED tape lighting (WAC) and my angled plugmold at rear wall detail.

 

Using the faceframed option for carcases, separation set to 3/4, add at the bottom front an opening 1-1/4" h., and make the door reveal for the deck (the bottom 3/4" "separation," -1-1/4".  For joined runs of wall cabs, I want the end cabs, those with finished ends (sides), I leave the side alone, but any sides that butt to another wall cab get the "custom face" treatment to the side that abuts, adding the same opening at 1.25" to the bottom.  To be a purist, I do the same at the back with the bottom opening.

 

The cabinet shop builds these boxes this way:  for 36" tall cabs, the doors are 35-7/8" tall (my top reveal for wallcabs is 1/8"), the carcases are 36 - 1.25 = 34.75" tall, and any that are ends have the appropriately side 36" high, the 1.25" overhang at bottom.

 

You can see the results of my doodling in the pic below.  It's an end box, the near side flush to the deck bottom, the far side overhanging to match the door.  The light rail molding is something I do after a cab arrangement is all final, and is done with the molding tool.  It's not within the cabinet modeling dialog.

 

I don't know how to remove that little stile stub you see in the near bottom corner.  Maybe @MarkMc can weigh in here and show us how.

First method shown along with two cabinets with nubs removed. One with full height side.
