    insert cooktop into cabinet

    Hi all, I having issues inserting a gas cooktop from google sketchup into chief X2.
    All goes well until i view the inserted cooktop and it sits higher than benchtop, by about 80-100mm.
    I have tried varied methods of inserting the appliance ie varying the height but no luck - any tips or tricks would be appreciated.

    regards

    You must adjust the ORIGIN. There are videos at ChiefTutor.com explaining this process.

    The videos we watch are not 100% gold, but if we find a gold nugget, the time spent viewing has a value.

    We can please some of the people some of the time, but we can't please all the people all of the time..... but I will keep trying.

    put a negative number equal to how far down you need the cooktop to sit in the z origin value.
