CABINET OBJECTS - door panels have 1/16" gap?

why does this occur and how to fix?
I've tried all the toggles known to man in both the 2d and 3d representation boxes....to no avail.

help and thanks.

These gaps may have been programmed in to stop adjacent identical materials "cleaning up" and therefore having no distinction between panels. Cadimage cabinet objects are similar but with very small gaps. Not sure if there is a solution or a setting to change.

Here's the thing though. You mentioned that these gaps could be programmed into the object so that if the object has the same material....it SHOULD show a line between them. Yet, I have two of the same cabinet objects, with the same material and yet I still have to show a 2D line in between them...what gives?

Also, those smaller than 1/16" wide gaps really make for difficulty in dimensioning the cabinets cause I'm not hitting it accurately enough.
