Cabinet swing lines on interior elevations

Anonymous
Not applicable
Is there a way to show swing lines on the AC 19 Library default cabinets on interior elevations (dashed V to show door operation)? They seem pretty versatile, but I can't find this setting.

I know cadimage objects do this, but they are expensive AND on a monthly subscription fee.

if AC 19 library cabinets can't do it, does anyone know a good alternative (that doesn't have a subscription based fee)

Thanks!

You might try a CadSwift for his Swift Joinery object. It is available to buy outright or as subscription if you want updates to the object. It looks pretty versatile and it looks by the video on his site that you can show door operation.

Thanks Gerald! Someone in our office came across this as well. it looks promising! it doesn't seem to do the drawer diagonal dashed line, but that might be really hard to find.

A pretty good alternative is just drawing the dashed lines on the elevations. Shouldn't take you more than 10 minutes. No subscription required!
