      The red borders identify rules. Notice that some rules and some cabinet parameters have been moved around. Hopefully this simplifies the work flow and reduces confusion.

            I don't know the first thing about cabinets but I will say your web dialogs and overall user interface with this plugin is fantastic stuff. I will be putting your plugin through its paces and perhaps I can learn a thing or two about how to create some exceptional user interfaces for my own plugin. You attention to detail is duly noted.

                Working on requested features and bug fixes.

                1. Fillers now work with Face Frame Construction.
                2. Fixed drawer handle position. Return cabinets had handles on drawer fronts and shouldn't have.
                3. Embossed Shaker ignored edge profiles. Fixed.
                4. Added library location so that your libraries can be on a server.
                5. Added logic to check for other language pdfs. If language is fr then first look for the French help file named 'cabmaker_fr.pdf' and if not found then loads the English 'cabmaker.pdf'. The same for other languages.

                  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)
