Using WallOffset Prompt in Products

Using WallOffset Prompt in Products

This feature allows the user to specify a distance to offset the product from the wall. This is useful when needing to allow for scribe or other wall furring that might be applied to the wall before cabinet installation. The feature is controlled on an individual product basis by adding a prompt to the product named WallOffset. You can use Library Designer to add the prompt to an entire category of products or the entire library. You can also add any number of global variables to provide different offset values to different categories of cabinets.
