How do I draw elevations in Visio for cabinet layouts?

[JELake]

I'm using Visio for my first time and I've had great success working on the
topical floorplan layout for my project. However, this is a 3D world and
there are some layout issues in the vertical space that I need to work
through. I'm not looking to convert my floorplan into 3D, I just want to be
able to create a elevation drawing of the wall so I can organize the
cabinets/storage visually. However, all of the shapes are pre-set for
floorplan view and even the walls and doors seem to be only available as
floorplan shapes.

Am I missing something? Surely people who use Visio regularly have a need
to see vertical drawings/elevations of their designs...

I don't think the product has much in the way of elevations for floor plans.

John Marshall's site has a killer list of Visio providers -- you might find
something here:
