Title: Cabinets
Post by: dkarlstumpf on June 06, 2021, 02:02:42 PM
I am using floor plan 2020, Windows 10. I am having trouble getting the Kitchen cabinets to drag onto the floor plan. I keep getting the island which I did not select when I do the selected cabinet to drag onto the floor plan it's on the wrong side of the wall and I can't get it back to the right side.

I tried reloading the file, no difference, restarted program, no difference. I changed the acceleration to 50 percent, no difference. The refrigerator and oven symbols transferred easily.

Hi there,

When you use the Cabinet tool (Floor Tab), you have two options to place the cabinets.
- If you place the cabinet by clicking on the floor of the room, FP will set an island cabinet.
- If you place the cabinet by clicking or dragging on the wall of the room, FP will set a wall cabinet using the selected model => go to the cabinets' menu => select the desired model => click inside the wall.

Important Tip: you can insert the cabinet first and select the model after.

Now, if you wish to add cabinets without the walls, check my Cabinets Collection (https://www.punchhelpers.com/collection-6.html)
It is a new collection with dozens of cabinets, islands, sets, pieces, etc. They don't need to be attached to a wall and they can be customized using different models, hardware, materials, colors, and features.

Hope this helps
