Drag & Drop design of wall #2

1. Click on the add wall button above the unit menu

2. Click and hold the mouse button directly below the right edge of wall #1 ( Joins The Wall to The End of Another Wall )

3. Drag the mouse down (straight up and down so the wall is not angled) until Wall Length = 120 in the message area below the unit menu.

4. Release the mouse button.

5. Click the OK button on the wall window.

 

       We just placed wall #2 to the right of wall #1. We did this by starting the wall very close to one end of a pre existing wall.

Drag & Drop Design of Wall #3 - a Peninsula Wall                                   

1. Click on the add island button above the unit menu

2. Click and hold the mouse button directly below the right edge (from floorplan view it will look like below) of wall #2 ( Joins The Wall to The End of Another Wall )

3. Drag the mouse to the left (horizontally so the wall is not angled) until Wall Length = 80 in the message area below the unit menu.

4. Release the mouse button.

5. Click the OK button on the wall window.

 

       Again, we placed wall #3 to the right of wall #2 by clicking near one end of a pre existing wall, it doesn't have to be on top of the wall, just close to it.

 

       You are able to design cabinets in two views, the elevation or floorplan. The elevation of a wall would be a "front" view looking at the Active Wall. The floorplan would be a "bird's eye" view looking down on the entire design. The best view to design in would be the elevation of a wall. To get to the elevation of a wall click on view on the main menu bar and click elev-floorplan to switch between the two views.
