Re: Custom paint color for Conestoga door and drawerfront

I wanted to add that this has always been such a chore to do that I just use Modify Textures in Custom Layout or in the Render View to change my door and drawer textures for presentations. And I don't disagree. The original implementation of Conestoga doors was for ordering purposes through the sof...

Re: Custom paint color for Conestoga door and drawerfront

As it turns out, mine working was an accident. You are not supposed to be able to modify the images of a saved Conestoga door. I can put the request in for the software engineers to add it for a future version.

Re: Custom paint color for Conestoga door and drawerfront

My steps seem to keep working for me. The only additional issue I have found is that if the image is not in the folder of the door's default material type the image change won't work. Your steps say you have it in the Hard Maple folder, and that works OK for me on the TW-10 door. Video of my steps c...

Re: Manual head alignment

You'll need at least a magnetic base and dial indicator to do it.

Re: Patition top tenons

Don,

This is a limitation of eCabinets. Each edge of a part can only construct into one part. ECabinets will construct into the part that the edge contacts the most. So you can modify the width of the stretcher to choose which one it contacts the most with.

Re: control nesting 6.25

This is one of those odd times where we jumped the gun with the desktop version vs the machine version. We aren't quite ready to release the update for the machine as we want it to be timed with the next Cut Ready release. We are hoping for soon, but we are waiting for product to arrive that will go...

Re: Custom paint color for Conestoga door and drawerfront

There seems to be something odd going on in the selection of texture for the doors. I'll pass the issue along to the software engineers to look at. In the mean time, you can get it working by following the steps below: 1. Select your desired texture in the Door/Drawer Designer. 2. Click the Reset Vi...

Re: Manual head alignment

I assume by clock you mean dial indicator? If so, no you'll need an indicator, precision pin, and tram bar to do the alignments. If you gather all the tools, you can reach out to our service department at service@thermwood.com for alignment procedures.

Re: Bad count purchased drawerboxes

I see the same thing here using what we refer to as the "old" Buy List (the one available by selecting the B on the toolbar). I'll report it to the software engineers to fix. In the mean time, you can use the "new" Buy List that is available in the Item Window. This list is displ...

The help manual tells you what the Lock Dado Tenon Gap refers to.

Re: Pinning cut path not sticking

Mark,

Do you get the same results using a back from a standard cabinet and same results on both your computers? The blue line will stay in the same place it was originally placed as it is just geometry where the path was originally swept, not where the cutpath exists.

Re: Edit depth of holes done with part editor

Can this be done? I placed a lot of 6mm dia. holes in a collection of parts and now want to change the depth from 3/8" to 5/8". I cannot seem to select a hole for edit. In Constraint Manager you can select, Edit, then Edit Depth. Or you can apply a depth constraint to them and modify the ...
