Cabinet Hinges for Thick Doors
Hi, I am currently running into an issue, and I wasn't sure if anyone might have found a solution or not. I'm looking for a thick door hinge that would overlay a face frame 1-1/4", and have a 1/4" reveal on the hinge side. The door would need to be aThe Formula for crown molding is wrong

It would be great if the Salice hinge names in the hardware selections actually matched the names in their catalog. For example, instead of "6HT" have the name state the height of the plate.FEATURE REQUEST - Differentiate between THRU and BRAD PT bits
I know there was a similar post back on the old MV help website that had quite a few followers, but I thought I'd bring it up again. It would be really helpful to have a way for MV to automatically select the correct bit when a drill hole goes through the material vs when it doesn't without having to do a workaround. Several users, including us here at Stevens, have been "tricking" the program using different diameters (8.0 vs 8.1) or similar, but it would be nice not to have to do that. PleaseNeed Help/Ideas
