When adding a new component, moving the cursor up or down before placement will determine the mounting type. There are various ways to change mounting type after the component is in a design zone.

Note

Remember, if changing from off-the-floor to a to-the-floor system, filler may need to be added on the components next to the wall. This may also require changing component widths to accommodate.

1

Quickly change an off-the-floor component to a to-the-floor by hovering near the bottom of the component until an arrow appears. The arrow will turn green when ready to be clicked.

Click on the arrow to extend the component to the floor. A toe kick and scribe will automatically be added.

Info

2

Switch back and forth between component mounting types by going into the Properties [Comp] menu and changing the Mounting Type under the Construction heading. This change can be applied to multiple components if desired using the Apply To options.

Note

Depending on certain the component and parts, certain parts may shift when changing mounting types. If this happens, manually adjust the parts afterwards. You may also notice width changes in components against a wall with floor molding.

 

Note

NOTE: A warning presents if using thicker material on wall mounted comps due to weight concerns. Clear this with your plan reviewer or ensure the components are floor-mounted.

When the Auto Update Height feature box is checked, it will lock the height of certain parts (such as hanging poles) when the toe kick is added. This ensures that the distance between the hanging pole and the floor (the hang height) remains the same. However, this will change the top shelf height to accommodate.
