Thermwood / eCabinet Systems

Forrest,
If you are needing a cut list for your sawyer, I would pull the drawer box parts from the eCabinets sheet component listing in excel, clean it up and sort it. You could record a macro to automize it a bit and go from this:
to this:

Mark,

Notice that when you enter your first set of coordinates and hit enter the entry method changes from Absolute to Incremental.
This happened to me as well the first time I tried this. When it happened, I selected the ABS radio button again and everything worked from there.

Mark,

HERE is a link to a video showing what I get with your entries.

Mark,

Just for fun, try checking these two boxes in Settings/Preferences (maybe one at a time) and see if anything happens.

Mark, Do you not get any image when you do a Presentation View? It seems that in the past, the Preview Render created a smaller, lower quality image that rendered much quicker. Now there is a little difference in the quality, and render times seem about the same as the Full Render. For my rendered p...

Mark, A couple of things you might look at. First, you have a lot of light in that room for a render. (look at the flare on your floor) I would probably just use two, maybe three fixtures for that room and turn the intensity down. I rarely use the down lights either, I have the best luck with the 4 ...

Jeff,
When this happens, Instead of using the Print Icon,
Click On File and then Print or press CTRL+P to print your documents.
Always works for me.

Chris, Mark and I have talked about this in the past and I don't have a solution, but I still don't see why you wouldn't do most of this in the Line Drawing Editor. Use some print to pdf drivers if you need to work in architectural size documents. I use Bluebeam Revu. Clipboard01.jpg Drawing cabinet...

Forrest,

I used to have that all the time. Very annoying. A new computer fixed it for me.

Jack,
In the Cabinet Editor/ Construction Settings, go to the Deck Tab
In the Deck Inset Settings-Bottom Inset. Use the formula - Bottom Rail Width - Deck Thickness

JR,

Go to the Cabinet Editor and open the Door Drawer Front Editor from there and select a slab door and you can modify it, add constraints and save it to your library. You must start from the cabinet editor.

Rob,
Take your cabinet to the cabinet editor,
select the part you want to edit and take it to the constraint manager
place a depth constraint on the geometry you want to change and the edit that constraint.

Ian,
I think you will need to constrain all of your geometry cuts or they will move when the part is re-sized.

It can get confusing.

Ian,

Did you constrain the dimensions of the geometries in the Constraint Manager?

I sometimes think it might be computer specific, but I had the same problem with my previous laptop. I have tried many times to make the crash happen but can never recreate the steps.
