In some situations it can be useful to move one or more objects away from the wall but still keep the connection to the wall. This can for instance be useful if the depth of one or more cabinets are smaller than the others and require a different planning depth.
When using Automatic offset from wall, Winner Design will automatically add a virtual and transparent filler between the cabinet and the wall.
Offset an object and add a virtual filler
Add a virtual filler on an object that is already moved away from the wall
Move object with User defined offset value set
- In Furnishing mode, select the required cabinet.
- Menu option: Object > Automatic offset from wall
Or
Right click and select Automatic offset from wall
This function can be used both on objects that you have already moved away from the wall, and on objects that you want to offset a certain distance from the wall. Both situations are described below.
NOTE!
- If you start the menu option User defined offset on an object with a "User defined offset" value already set, Winner Design will ask for a new offset value.
- If the "User defined offset" value is already set on an object, and you turn the menu option User defined offset back to off, the object will move back to the wall again.
- If you use the same offset value frequently it can be stored in Winner;
- Access Drawing settings by pressing F7 on your keyboard or following; Alternative > Settings > Measurements
- Select the Measurements button at the bottom of the window.
- Select Wall offset level in the list and enter the required value at the bottom of the window.
- These will now show as options when you select Automatic offset from wall.
Offset an object and add a virtual filler
- Select the required cabinet(s).
- Menu option: Object > Automatic offset from wall > User defined offset.
- Winner Design will ask you to enter an offset value for the selected object(s).
Enter the required offset value, and click OK. - The selected object will move the entered number of mm from the wall, and a virtual and transparent filler will automatically be added between the cabinet and the wall.
Add a virtual filler on an object that is already moved away from the wall
- Select the required cabinet (that is already moved away from the wall):
- Menu option: Object > Automatic offset from wall > User defined offset.
Winner Design will automatically add a virtual and transparent filler between the cabinet and the wall/island solution.
Move object with User defined offset value set
If you move an object to or from a wall/island solution, and the "User defined offset" value is already set, the offset value will automatically adapt to the new position. See the illustration below:
