custom countertop creates backspash?

[SHCanada2]

I have seen this before where if I had a cabinet on a wall with a backsplash, and then I disable the backsplash, the backsplash does not go away.

 

But I do not remember how to fix it.  anyone know? other than putting in a custom backsplash

One of the base cabinets under the custom counter is still set to have a backsplash.  Just select them all and turn off the backsplash and it should go away.

I will try that tommorow.

 

But, is that the proper behaviour? if you look at the cabinet  beside the sink, there is no backsplash there on the wall with the window, so why would there not be a backspace there but backspace on a wall with no cabinet? I did actually have a cabinet there which was set to have no backsplash and it still put in a backsplash.

 

I did get rid of it by drawing a custom backspash on the wall, which ironically did not actually put on a backspash, but it did get rid of the teal tile one that was there

This might be the answer to your quirky backsplash behavior

Custom counters will always try to find a base cabinet to use for their settings (such as height, thickness, material, and backsplash).  The problem is that you can't always tell which base cabinet it will find first.  It might be the first one, or the last one, or one in the middle somewhere. 

 

If the one it finds has the backsplash turned on, then it will put a backsplash along all edges that are against a wall.  I don't think the "side" setting does anything in this case.  I don't know that I would call this a bug or not but it seems to be the way it has always worked (and it took me waaay too long to figure this out).  The easy fix is to just make sure all of the base cabinets have the backsplash turned off.

 

In Doug's case above, I didn't get the same results as him.  It looks like it might be a problem with the counter edge not always being against the wall.  I think it has to be right up against the wall and not have too big of a gap or any overlap.  I think it is easier to snap it against a wall while working in plan views instead of in 3D.  It might also be an update issue.  Every so often I run into things that magically get fixed by either doing a "rebuild 3D" or "rebuild floors/ceilings".  I would call that a bug and report it to Chief if it gets fixed just by hitting F12.

 

Now what I really wish we had was the ability to manually turn on/off the backsplash and/or the edge molding on any counter edge instead.

thank you both. The cabinets on the other side had the backsplash on

or at least put the backsplash setting on the custom countertop as a whole, which would be overidable on the cabinet beneath it
