Re: Is rendering playing up for anyone else?
Thanks for the replies. If you you can preview your renders before printing, I think it must be my computer or graphics card. I've tried 3 different jobs and it doesn't work for me. Also thanks for those settings and tips Kerry. I will save them and use them. I remember you posting some very nice re...

Is rendering playing up for anyone else?
Hi guys. Not sure if its just my computer. As far as I can tell all my graphic drivers are up to date. I haven't been into the presentation area for a while, so it could just be user error. (me) The system crashed and the reporter came up, which I sent but was unable to reproduce the crash. But the ...

Re: Options for Line drawings
Yes, you can import elevations or plan views. There are a couple of ways i can think of. I will outline the cabinet one, but once you have that, you can do it from custom Layout. 1: put cabinet into cabinet / assembly editor 2: If you want internal view of shelves or drawers In construction settings...

Re: Options for Line drawings
PS to the above. Here is a link to the printing program we use to save the DWG's or DXF's from Viacad. It allows you to save them as JPEGS or PDFs as required directly to folders on your computer. Normal printers sometimes don't have the aditional file formats to save as. https://tools.pdf24.org/en/...

Re: Options for Line drawings
Hi Chris. Yes. That is the one. However, I would buy version 14 if you can, only because it will probably last you better. I am just starting to get a few little inconveniences since windows went from 10 to 11. This is just the system we use and it works for us, but you have to work out if it will s...

Re: CN Feature request
Yes. We could run the roughing/ hogging tool for longer use because a few little chips to melamine faces would get cleaned up by keeping a good outline tool. I don't know how the wear times would stack up but it should at least amount to less new tool changes. Sometimes for various reasons :roll: be...

Re: 2 glitches in one Drawer lock dado predrill and stretcher rotation
Hi Nicholas. The predrills show up and look ok until you nest and you can see that they disappear Yes I can see where they disappear. Its interesting to see how others use the software.

Re: Options for Line drawings
Hi Chris I also use Vectric Aspire but I am not proficient with it. I am more biased towards viacad to do technical workshop type drawings. With all these programs, of course there is the learning time cost. I do presume that you are aware that there is the line drawing editor in ecabs? I personally...

Re: Lock Dado with Centreline idea
Hi Jeremy. There is a new angle to look at it from. I had not thought of applying it through the pattern manager. A similar situation is when the end thickness gets changed. We use the euro style front overlay hinges. We have had a couple of times when the the ends get changed from 5/8" (16mm) ...

Re: GLITCH in part editor for doors that are edged
Hi Nick I'm not sure whats going on there. I am putting the door into the doors, saved, slab file I just use the software, so I like you am just trying to reproduce your steps. I couldn't load your door as it was broken and I have attached the error messages. It still looks like a Constraints thing ...

Re: Toe board and notch
I don't use face frames, so I am probably missing the point, but just a thought bump if you are stuck.
The setting in the attached picture seems to adjust that.
Same thickness as shelf material.
