Hi all, I am trying to place some outlets on the ends of two walls in a remodel project, see first pic for real world location. I am unable to get them to snap to the ends of the two walls you see in the second pic, end of a 9 1/4" thick 40 1/2" H half wall & end of a 9 1/4" thick interior frame wall. Any way to do this easily? Thanks.

I see 3 options"

  1. It would appear that the wall is actually 3 walls: [ a long_wall - a short_wall - a long_wall. ] If you model it that way you would be able to place the outlet on the short wall.
  2. Model the Wall as a Cabinet (no doors or drawers-finish to match walls) and place the outlet on the end of that Cabinet
  3. Change the outlets' options so that it isn't "Wall Mounted

Thank you kindly. Made it work by unchecking wall mounted & choosing mounts below wall cabinet. Don't know why I didn't see that before. Thanks again, Joe.
