Patent attributes
A control circuit provides a user with an opportunity to create a custom virtual three-dimensional kitchen component selected from a categorical list of available customizable kitchen components. Upon detecting the user's assertion of the opportunity, the control circuit automatically provides the user with an interactive form that includes a plurality of selectable features for the selected customizable kitchen component. Upon receiving user entries regarding the plurality of selectable features, the control circuit automatically defines a customized virtual three-dimensional kitchen component that comports with the user entries. By one approach the control circuit accesses information that describes a merged three-dimensional kitchen component that comprises an aggregation of all available user-selectable features for that particular categorical component The control circuit then employs the user entries to delete unselected ones of the user-selectable features from this merged three-dimensional kitchen component to thereby define the customized virtual three-dimensional kitchen component.
