Convert to Morphs, modify, save again as new library part.

What is the specific name of the library part your using ?

Your welcome. There is always a way to do what you need with ArchiCAD, and never only one way to skin a skunk 🙂

In using (3) of the closet objects you may want to explode the 2 on the sides of the corner object. Delete what you don't need, adjust to fit the other object, then same the whole thing as an object again, or just save the two modified objects as objects that you can modify again sometime by converting back into a morph. ?

A corner rail is not very practical, structurally as you now have a leveraged cantilever, or utility wise as things you hang will clash... I usually leave one of the side panels, one long rail, one short rail, as you can always store seasonal clothing hidden away. Have yet to figure out the best way to terminate lower drawers or shelves though...

Corner drawers are fun, but they do waste a bit of space.
