      I also want to mention that I've been having issues with El Capitan and cabmaker after version 1.0.16

      I now have a version 1.0.21 that hopefully corrects this. If someone is interested please contact me and I will send you a share link so you can down load it from google drive.

        Here is a cross section of the 6 different cabinet construction styles. Of course there are variations within each of the styles.

        The configuration is as follows:

        • Height 768 mm
        • Case material 19 mm thick
        • Stretchers 75 mm wide by 16 mm thick
        • Stiles and Rails 38 mm wide by 19 mm thick
        • Doors and Drawers 19 mm thick
        • Door gap = 3 mm
        • Door protrusion = 2 mm
        • Drawer Heights set to 200 mm

        Cabinet constructions:

        1. Frameless Overlay
        2. Frameless Inset
        3. Partial Frame Overlay
        4. Full Frame Overlay
        5. Partial Frame Inset
        6. Full Frame Inset

          Version 1.0.21 is ready for download. This version works with SU 2016 and El Capitan.

          This is a patch version and does not include face frames.

            The 1.0.21 update of Cab Maker is working well on my Mac running El Capitan and SU-2016.
            Cab Maker is such a useful plug-in! It's a real timesaver in my kitchen design/space planning business.

            I'm looking forward to seeing your continued improvements such as face frames, (and I hope) double top drawers for wide cabinets, and end angle cabinets!

              I'm getting real close with face frame construction.

              I've completed:
              Standard, Sink, Angled, Returned, Angled Sink, Left Blind and Right Blind in Inset and Overlay flavors and in both partial and full frames.

              I've got the tall cabinet to finish off.

                  Kim - I've extended your trial another month.

                  With face frame construction I've disabled left and right fillers.
                  I've also extended kicks to line up with the amount the left and right stiles overhang the cabinet.

                      Version 1.0.22 is ready for download from my website.
                      It will be in the plugin store shortly.

                      The bad news is I did not finish face frames for tall cabinets. That will come out next week.

                        I'm thinking of adding a dimension layer to cabmaker. It would be a plan view which would give you cabinet widths and depths for uppers and lowers.

                        In 3D view you would normally turn this layer off. But in overhead plan view you could turn off all layers except this new dimension layer.

                        Anyone interested?

                          Yes, that would be helpful for me! Would it display the measurements automatically? Or by selecting? Heights would be helpful too, although widths are most important.

                            It would be automatic and the layer would be turned off by default.

                            The layer would show the outline of the cabinets and widths and depths no heights.
                            All the geometry for the cabinet 2D layer would be at floor level.

                                I'm working on detecting change for each major area: cabs, ruls, materials and doors. When I detect change then I'll set the option to "Save".

                                The other choice is I can put three buttons on each of the main tabs. "Save", "Cancel" and "Delete"
                                I can also put the library name in a text box that you can change if you want - This would provide a "Save As" function.

                                Any opinions?

                                  So then - a CSV file - which is short for (Comma Separated Values) won't work properly for Regional Settings that use a comma as a decimal symbol.

                                  For reports fractional inches currently works - but mm and decimal inches with extra comma's do not
                                  I should have a fix later today.

                                  I've read that excel in Europe by default uses a semi colon as a delimiter.

                                      I'm adding size adjustments for panel raised door parts. You can now adjust stiles and rail widths and lengths and panel width and height.

                                      Modified parts lists to allow for adjustments.

                                      Next version should be out some time tomorrow.

                                        Version 1.0.25 is now ready for download

                                        You can now adjust door parts for reporting.
                                        I am now automatically detecting if OS is setup for decimal symbol as ',' a comma. If so then the report uses ';' semi colon as delimeter for CSV reports otherwise the CSV reports use a comma.

                                          Here's a tip. If you want to do additional math on your csv reports then try turning off 'Display Units Format'.

                                          The CSV reports honor your settings.

                                          If you are using fractional inches and see a tilde '~' in front that means approximate. For precise math you should check each web dialog screen and remove the tildes.

                                            Oops - version 1.0.25 shows up as version 1.0.24

                                            There is now a version 1.0.26 which correctly shows version 1.0.26
