ANSWER

Easily insert multiple appliances into a single cabinet by using the Cabinet Specification dialog.

Note: The appliances used in this resource are part of the Dacor Manufacturer Catalog. To learn more about obtaining additional catalogs, please see the Related Articles section.

To modify the size of the cabinet

Select Build> Cabinet> Full Height and click in your plan to place a cabinet at the location where you clicked.
Use the Select Objects tool to select the cabinet, and click the Open Object edit button to display the Full Height Cabinet Specification dialog.
On the General panel, specify the Width, Height, Depth and Floor to Top/Bottom values for your cabinet.

To add Face Items to the cabinet

On the Front/Sides/Back panel of the Full Height Cabinet Specification dialog, click on the top Face Item within the 3D preview and adjust the Item Height to your liking.
With the top Face Item still selected, click the Add New button to add additional Face Items to the cabinet.

Note: Clicking Add New will insert a new Face Item below the currently selected item. If there is no current selection, the new Face Item will be added to the bottom.
In the New Cabinet Face Item dialog, set the Item Type and Item Height, then click OK.
Use the Move Up and Move Down buttons to re-order the face items as necessary.

Note: To ensure that Face Item heights always equal the total cabinet front height, the program automatically adjusts the bottom Face Item as changes are made elsewhere. If you want to prevent a specific face item from resizing, Select the item and then check Lock from Auto-Resize.

To modify individual sections to have different appliances

Click on the Face Item you want to modify to select it, and then click the Specify button next to the Appliance/Door/Drawer section.
In the Select Library Object dialog, browse the library and choose the appliance you wish to insert, then click OK.

In this example, we browsed to Manufacturer Catalogs> Dacor> Wall Ovens and chose the HWOP230P Pro Double Wall Ovens.
Back in the Full Height Cabinet Specification dialog, click on any other Face Items you would like to add appliances to and perform the same procedure.

In this example, we chose to insert the HWD30PS Heritage 30" Pro Warming Drawer at the bottom of the cabinet with an Item Height of 13".
Finally, take a Camera view to see the results.
