[Plugin] GKWare Cabinet Maker

Garry K · 13 Feb 2016, 17:59

Here is a video with cab maker and cut list pro integration.

Garry K · 14 Feb 2016, 16:14

I'm thinking about adding a feature where you create a cabinet with create options:

Create Options
Drop down that has "Full Cabinet", "Door Fronts Only", "Door Fronts and Frames Only"

Hi Garry, is there a way for Cabmaker to identify material list as per what is in the current model?

Garry K · 14 Feb 2016, 23:18

Yes - Go to the defaults tab.
That will show you what all the defaults are.

I do save defaults settings with each model.

utiler · 14 Feb 2016, 23:29

Thanks but my defaults only show imperial_rules & imperial_rules_upper...?
How do I change it to metric?

Garry K · 14 Feb 2016, 23:36

From the main menu choose

Extensions \ GKWare CabMaker \ Cab Maker - Edit Config

Set Filter to Imperial to filter out Imperial
OR - depending upon what you want
Set Filter to Metric to filter out Metric

utiler · 14 Feb 2016, 23:47

I have that set to metric but still the defaults show imperial....

Garry K · 14 Feb 2016, 23:52

Yes - you are filtering out Metric.
This setting will show everything else.

Version 1.0.33 is now ready to download.

Added width adjustment for cabinet sides and top / bottoms.
Added bottom gap for frameless construction with overlay doors.
Modified reports. Changed Solid to Dimensioned Lumber so that the report would work with Cut List Plus.

Gotcha. Filtering is filtering out. A bit back to front but I understand now. thanks.

Cabinet maker not working if you have Plusspec installed, I tried using it but it does not create any geometry or open any dialogs, I am assuming Plusspec is the cause as it started this behaviour after I installed the new version of Plusspec. However the Ruby console has this:

Error; #<SyntaxError; (eval);1; syntax error, unexpected tIDENTIFIER, expecting end-of-input
su"{dire">="olosp","wssa"drol">=evsa"sagil",snec>="ea",2l_...

Just an assumption bug it looks like eval has been modified. Modifying built in objects is considered bad form.

At this moment I suggest that you disable Plus Spec and try again and see what happens.

solo · 16 Feb 2016, 16:03

I just tried Cabinet maker using SU 2014 which does not have Plusspec installed and I am getting same behaviour, must be another issue.

Garry K · 16 Feb 2016, 16:08

Pete,

I've sent you a PM with my email address. We can figure this out.

Garry

Garry K · 16 Feb 2016, 16:20

For support users shoul contact me via my web site.
http://cabmaker32.com/contact/

This will get through to me almost immediately and no chance of going to trash.
I will then answer as quickly as possible.

Garry K · 16 Feb 2016, 21:17

A user has found a bug and I've fixed it.

I will put out version 1.0.34 with the fix late tomorrow or early the next day.

The bug has to do with finished panels.

Hi Garry i understand we have some type of clash between Plusspec and Cabinet maker? I can send you a beta version or vice versa of that helps? .
I had a quick look at what you are doing and it's fantastic. Good job, sometimes it takes a tradesman to build site specific software. It looks like it would compliment what we are doing with Plusspec.

Andrew.

Figured out it has nothing to do with Plusspec, just a coincidental timing thing. It has to do with my login.

Garry K · 17 Feb 2016, 21:44

I think Pete is correct.
Andrew - I am slowly trying to narrow this down.

The crazy part is that the old version used to work on Pete's computer - now it doesn't.
Something has changed - just don't know what it is. What I mean is the old version no longer works.

The other interesting thing is that no one else has reported this problem. That doesn't mean no one else has seen it - it just means no one has brought it to my attention.

aadbuild · 19 Feb 2016, 03:08

That is good to know, we do have the PlusSpec 2016 beta version out to beta testers, it would be great if you joined Garry. PM me if keen, I understand that you have a lot on your plate so no hurry mate.
Getting close to beer o'clock down under. See you all at BaseCamp
