I cannot place certain cabinets, the placement icons do not appear on the left side, why?
There are several reasons why you may not be able to place all or certain cabinets:
- The database containing the cabinets has not been purchased.** In this case, as shown on the left side of the image above, a green label will appear under the cabinet thumbnails, indicating the database in which the cabinet is located. Clicking on the label will open the catalogs' website, where you can find more information about the catalogs. The image below shows what the Trend2 database looks like in the editor if it has not been purchased (left) and if it has been purchased (right). If you still cannot place the cabinets after purchasing the database,** you should review the additional options listed on this page.
-
Incorrect front selected.The program will not allow you to place a cabinet if the front selected in the properties is not linked to the cabinet. These front links can be configured on the Cabinet database / Front bindings page. If nothing is set on this page, the cabinet can be placed with any front. In the editor, you can see which fronts are linked to a cabinet by right-clicking on the thumbnail.
It is also possible to bind front variations to the furniture, not just specific fronts. In this case, the furniture can only be arranged with fronts that have the bound front variation, e.g., curved or angled end panels. In the properties, you can filter for these front variations to see only the fronts that have the necessary variation.
You need to select the appropriate front in the properties before you can place the cabinet. It is not possible to choose a front from the pop-up list.
- If all elements or just the front settings are deleted in the properties, it's important to check the properties to ensure nothing, or at least the front settings, are missing. The image below shows what the properties window looks like in this scenario. Simply set a property for the front, and you'll be able to place the cabinets. You can also reload the properties using the button in the top left corner.
If you do not want to put a front on the furniture, use the "no front" option.
