You need to edit Drawers  / Doors sub-methods

or edit slack from left and right manually

Cheers, Alex

Hi Alex,

Thanks, that make sense.

Please see attached photo, it doesn’t work the way we want it would however.

It is still different slack on the doors and the drawer…

In our design of the closet, the shelf in between the doors and drawer is behind the doors. I have put in that the door is overpassing the shelf, but the slack on the sides is different, so the parts have different measurements.

Thanks.

Cheers,

Ola

Hi,

“apply half slack when shared edges” is only when you have shelves / uprights between 2 doors / drawers

The current Sub-method doors is to uncheck option “apply half slack when shared edges”

and set 1.5 for Applied and 3mm for built-in doors

If I compare both sub-methods on your cabinet, slacks are inverted on your droors

and it is why you don’t have the same setting

Cheers, Alex

Discovered that we have filled inn “apply half slack when shared edges” but still the doors doesn’t have the correct slack, and therefor the pieces have different measurement in the cut list?

Hi,

Can you please advise in project attached here, how to get 3 mm slack around on both sides, on both the doors and the drawer? The drawer must be 268 mm in height because there is a furniture on the side of this with a drawer with the same height.

Thanks!

Cheers, Ola
