Mid-Rail

Overview

The mid-rail is only valid when used inside a faceframe cabinet. It has no behavior in a frameless cabinet or inside a 5-piece door, panel, or drawer front.

The mid-rail is placed inside the cabinet. Its width is constrained by whatever is immediately to the left and right of it. Items that constrain it are:

• Cabinet Left Stile
  • Cabinet Right Stile
  • Mid-Stile

a mid-rail will also constrain the height of:

• Mid-Stile
• Door
• Drawer

You can use the SketchUp Scale tool to re-size its width. After you re-size it, CabinetSense will again look for the left and right constraints and calculate its final width.

Unique Properties:

• Placement

• Reference: Choose between a) from bottom of cabinet, b) from top of cabinet, or c) % from bottom of cabinet. As you re-size the cabinet, the mid-rail will be re-positioned based on this setting.
• Distance: The distance to move from the reference point (defined above)
• New Percentage: Enter a percentage value in this property. CabinetSense will calculate the distance and update the distance property for you.
• Percentage: Display field the shows the % that the mid-rail is in relation to the reference field.
