Fitting Cabinets to a room?
(OP)
How do I accomplish inserting cabinet assemblies in to a room model and have the cabinets equally resize based on the size of the room?
I have a wall that's 145 1/4", and I want 6 equal cabinets along that wall. What if that wall changed to 142 1/8"? Can I make a model that can dynamically update my cabinets, and resize them equally?
Thanks!

-Draw the room outline and extrude the walls.
-Insert cabinets from our library.
-Mate the cabinet ends/bottoms together.
-Use the walls to drive the sizes of the cabinets. (We do a submittal drawing, get it approved, then go out and take actual dimensions of the room, then edit our drawings accordingly).
What's the most effecient way to accomplish this? While making it repeatble in multiple room configurations for different clients/jobs?
C. I'm really new to solidworks. I've been drawing custom retail fixtures and cabinets in autocad for 12 years. Finally making the move to 3D, and trying to automate the process. If I have to draw every single cabinet part, I'd go nuts. :p
Thanks again!

This might be something that we just accomplish with configurations.
