      1. Toolbar is now restored to previous state for Mac. It is is also now shown on first install.
      2. Added a handle called 'No Handle' It is simply an invisible line - use where you do not want a handle to show up.
      3. Added Bottom Gap for Upper Doors. Changed Bottom Gap to Base Bottom Gap. Enter negative amount for door to extend beyond cabinet.

          1. You can now save templates using mixed case.
          2. The Defaults Tab now has a default Upper Handle and a default Base Handle.

          I've had a request to allow drawer banks with angled cabinets and with return cabinets. Anyone else interested. Any other feature requests?

              It would be nice if we could add DXF file export to the cabmaker so the CNC users could send it direct to their CAM software.

                      1. Drawer auto height - Edit now shows actual height for last drawer in drawer bank.
                      2. 2D cabinet dimensioning on layer called "Dimensions"

                      Set Config if you want dimensioning. Also you can set a network path here.

                      New version available shortly.

                        Garry,
                        I have tried to make a standard upper cabinet without drawers/doors with a 18mm thick back board, 0mm back offset and 0mm back dado:
                        CM001.jpg
                        CM003.jpg
                        But the problem now is the back board not placed in a correct position:
                        CM004.jpg
                        I have tried to solve it by making back offset in minus figure but it didn't work for me. Finally I changed the thickness of back board to minus figure which return the back board to the right place:
                        CM005.jpg
                        CM006.jpg
                        I do not know if this Ok especially with the reports also I could't use the back offset after this modification.

                            The fix is now in version 1.0.37.

                            I've set:
                            Corner brace width = 0
                            back material thickness = 5/8"
                            Back offset = 0
                            Back dado = 0

                              Thank you Garry for graet support. It works for me now.
                              But I have another issue. I have drawn the following cabinet:

                              CM007.jpg
                              CM008.jpg
                              CM009.jpg

                              The problem now is the width of the side panel in the parts list report is greater than the actual width by 10mm :

                              CM010.jpg

                                Please check the 'Additional' section in the Rules 2 tab

                                Side Width Adj:
                                Top / Bottom Width Adj:

                                There are several adjustments that are required for cabinet makers who need to increase the size of various parts. That includes:

                                Sides, Tops, Bottoms, Drawer Box Fronts and Backs and Door parts (Stiles, Rails and Panels)

                                  You are right, I changed side width adj to 0mm. Now the parts list report give me 600mm instead of 610mm.
                                  I think if you change the title from Additional to Final Cut Adjustments it will become more clear.

                                    I see what you mean however these are actually 'Additional' since there are 5 items.
                                    only 2 of them are Part adjustments

                                    Then there is 1 part adjustment in the drawer box section and then each door template has 5 adjustments.

                                        Hi Garry,
                                        The following wall cabinet is from IKEA website:

                                        CM012.jpg

                                        I have tried to make a semillar cabinet with cabmaker but it allow for one door if I select hinge top in the door options:

                                        CM011.jpg
                                        CM013.jpg

                                        Is it possible to make a cabinet with two horizental door in cabmaker?

                                          I'm actually working on something that should work for you.

                                          The next version of cabmaker will give you more control over tall cabinets.
                                          And yes - you will be able to make a cabinet with up to 3 sections - each with single doors and each with hinge options.

                                            Garry,

                                            Today I tried to make a standard base cabinet with zero top gap:

                                            CM014.jpg
                                            CM017.jpg

                                            But when I zoomed in I found a small gap between door top and the top of the cabinet equal to 3mm:

                                            CM015.jpg

                                            I notice when I change the door gap to zero the top gap also become equal to zero:

                                            CM018.jpg
                                            CM016.jpg

                                            Could you please help in this issue.

                                            Thanks
