I dont know if something changed in V6b2 but I now get the following message after making a change in Const. Sett. Cant seem to tell if the timing is different, or Win 7 percieves eCabs as stopped. Sometimes I think it is. IF ignored eCabs goes on as usual. Message dissappears

Re: Drawer Box Designer Issues

I had a little more time to spend on this. More info:

It seems this is a product of placing PE cuts near or on Dados. If butt joinery is global selected this issue dissappears.
When it does happen, it only appears to happen to the upper constraints in CM view. Lower ones work fine.

When closing ...

In V5.2, virtually all of my base cabs has this "web Top" some have had the blind dado joinery for the partition. None have had the PE cuts to the partition shown in another post. None have shown this error. It may be a product of changing the Dado front stops last or the combination of PE ...

V6b2 Construction Settings

Open the attached cabinet derived from V6 std base framed. The top dado settings are set to 1 1/2" on the R & L fronts, but they show as 1". If set at 2" all seems fine. When the top is taken into the PE for a closer look it returns a "funky" little geometric quirk between 1" and 1 1/2" on the tenon ...

Re: Terrible problem with Hardware data base

Kerry...
Virtually all my setting etc were carried forward, but like you I lost the hardware. Unlike you, I had only a small number inV6 b1 and will go forward. Hopefully will be fixed before next version. I was luck to get the last of my V5.2 cabinets cut yesterday. Forward with V6!

V6b2 Draw Box Designer

I have noticed that when in the Draw Box Designer, the 1st mouse click selects nothing, second also nothing, third works. It takes a half second delay between clicks or double click is interpreted. Double click works very well on 1st try. This, at least on this computer, is very exaggerated by ...

Agree on both.. 8)

I do exactly what you said. Make a draw box of Solid Maple NOCUT. The first even had the dovetails included, but Kerry set me straight on that. I do use it as a "build in house" with proper dado depths to return accurate front, back, sides and bottom sizes to the cutlist ...
