Hello Garry,
I post this kind of question on the forum because I think I may not be the only one with this question and I think it's good for documentation purposes as it is impossible to write a manual with all the questions that every users will ever ask.
I don't mind waiting a bit for the answer (and it has never been very long).
For the record I really think we should have a subforum somewhere for your plugin. So questions can be sorted in some way, instead of being all in a 18 pages topic.
Hello everyone, and happy new year.
Double question here:
I often wanted to define a different thickness to finished panels and fillers. is it possible?
[SOLVED, see below] here I have a weird result. I actually have 2 different thickness, I don't know why, and it is exactly the opposite of what I want 
I'd like a finished panel of 30mm and a filler of 19 so it would be flush with the door. Is it a bug or is it me?
and maybe this will help to diagnose the problem: weirdly enough, if I change the door material for 40, for example, i get this!
![with 40mm door panel in "material" tab](/uploads/imported_attachments/tcGU_ScreenShot01-06-20at03.07PM.PNG "with 40mm door panel in "material" tab")
door style : "metric plain door"
door shape : "plain panel"
OK I got the answer to my problem but I keep this post for reference for people having the same issue:
my finished panel (in cabinet 2 tab) "door panel" option was defined as "metric plain door" which seemed fine to me. I just switched it to "--" which solved the issue.
I still would like to change my filler thickness though.
@garry k said:
The handle is placed at stile width / 2.
I'm guessing that you have slab doors and have set the stile width to 0
yes, that was it. I did not think to check stile options as I was using plain doors.
thank you
Hello,
When I select "top" or "bottom" for "Handle Location:" in drawer section of project tab, I end up with handle on the edge of the face (instead of a few cm from the top or the bottom). I cannot find where this come from. I don't see any option that supposed to manage this.
br,
HEllo,
I just discovered that you could use the same sketchup licence on 2 computers provided that you don't use both at the same time. This is great news to me.
So I was wondering if it was something that you could consider for CAbmaker? I'm pretty sure that almost every pro here would love to be able to do that (desk comptuer and laptopt, or laptop and home computer).
Hello,
I got an error: "undefined method '[]=' for nil:NilClass" while trying to select the "omit drawer front" option for a sink cabinet.
So the cabinet exist. It is defined as a sink cabinet. It has 2 drawers. So far so good. But if I edit it and try to change juste that, I get this error.
If I choose tip ou tray it works, but not "omit..."
br,
HEllo,
I can't figure out how to add a simple color to CAbmaker. I'm trying to follow the steps described in the manual (page 206), I already did it with a texture, but I'm stuck at step 1 because it's not a texture but a color this time.
When I go in sketchup in the materials panel, if I right click on the color I want to add to cabmaker, I can't select "export texture image". It's grayed out.
If I choose a material which is clearly a texture (wood, metal...) the option is available.
any workaround?
I'm trying to add a black that's a bit "less black" as the one in cabmaker is black as this new M.I.T. material, and make every details invisibles, even with shadows.
And I want a real anthracite gray too. the dark gray is not very dark.
Would be nice indeed, the sliding doors, and those type of handle.
for the question below, I just forgot to switch from "sink" type cabinet after generating this one. So problem solved
About drawer, you mentionned drawer systems template... I'd love to have Blum Legrabox. I don't know how common they are among your client though.
is there a way to have a hole instead of a handle? So not a profile that goes from one side of the door to the other, but just for example a rectangular hole of 120x35mm on the top of a small door.
The 5th version is realy quicker than the 3, that's nice
