Box with Lids on top and bottom (base in the middle) #128

Hi,

I have a small design with a PCB and battery box which I want to fit into a YAPP box. The battery box is bigger than the PCB. I would be fine to have the PCB fixed in the YAPP box but I need access to the battery box. From the side the box should look like this:

´----------------`
|     ------     |  <-- PCB
+----------------+
|  +----------+  |
|  |          |  |  <-- battery box
|  +----------+  |
`---------------´

Because the battery box is bigger than the PCB I cannot just hide it between the pcbStands. I tried to turn the design upside down (putting the battery box into the lid and the PCB onto the base. Then I added a small frame using the lidhook so I can fixate the battery box between that frame and the lid. The PCB is between that frame and the base. But this did not work out. I was not able to tweek the pcbstands, buttons and LEDtubes because YAPP box alwas assumes the PCB sits on top of the base and buttons and tubes calculate from there.
Ideally I want to extend the box below the base so that the battery box could fit in there and would be close by an additional lid. Maybe also having an offset for the z component of the base might work.

Is there a way to do that with YAPP box already or is that a scenario that would need an extension?
