A base cabinet is created by adding parts to a floor-based component, typically one that is 24” deep. They can be placed in closets, offices, media centers, or any other space that requires a lower component with a countertop.
There are various part configurations used to design a base cabinet, and these configurations will determine the overall height of the top shelf or countertop. The height should be considered based on the use of the cabinet.

It is easiest to change the depth <LINK> of the component first. Then, start adding parts, such as drawers, starting at the bottom and moving upwards. Then, adjust the height of the top shelf <LINK>by grabbing it with the cursor and pulling it down to sit directly on top of the parts or to a desired height.

To turn Auto Height off, go into the Properties [Part] under the Misc heading, and turn off the Auto Height option. With this feature turned off, it will lock the height of that part.

REMINDER OF COMPONENT DEPTH:
If working with multiple components with doors or pull outs, it may give a warning or automatically double par when changing the component depth <LINK>. If only changing the depth of one component and not the others, for example with a 24” deep drawer bank with 14” components on either side, a double par may be required and should remain - Refer to a plan reviewer with any questions.

The easiest way to approach this scenario is to plan before changing depths. If users uncheck the Auto Partitions box in the ribbon toolbar, it will stop components from double parring.
