Hi Geoff,

1 - Go to objects--> Bath--> Fixtures--> you will find several sinks, vanities with sinks (not centered). If you wish to develop your own counter, you can follow this tutorial by RB Gardener

2 - I saw this before. usually, this is related with the floor / shower elevation (they are at the same elevation)
To prevent this effect, you can set the shower elevation 0.5" or 1" above the floor level.

Hi Patricia,

Thanks for your continued help, much appreciated.

Sorted out the shower elevation, just 1/2'' was enough.

But on the basin in a counter: had a look at the objects-bath-fixtures. My set of objects had a series of baths and tubs, free-standing basins, a couple of vanity-style basins plus shower fittings, etc but no "insertable" sinks. Maybe my version (AS3000 10) does not have all the objects available in your version? If so, can I get the extra objects somewhere (not worried if I have to pay for them)?

The Plumbing tab has sinks but they do not seem to be re-sizable?

Hi Geoff,

You have several options
1 - Open your Punch program--> Right top--> Punch Updater--> so you can be sure you have all the available objects, textures, etc (Punch libraries)
2 - You can edit one of the vanities with the 3D workshop--> delete the cabinet--> set the sink as a POB (Save to library)--> resize and use
3 - You can check for other objects at www.punch-alternatives.com

Hi Patricia & Lyle, Thanks for your assistance, reckon I have a much better idea of how to proceed. Tried the 3D Workshop - fun but steep learning curve! The www.punch-alternatives.com site is a great resource, thanks for that. Now, if I can get away with one more question! Wall colors: it seems that a wall that extends across more than one room will have the same color. I realise that the muti-room wall can be "broken" into walls for each room but this seems really clumsy, specially if the other walls are later moved. Also, the dimensioning goes crazy. So, is there another way, other than breaking the wall? Geoff. Geoff.
