Consraints Changing Since V5.2 - B1

Post by GregDevitt »

Since i have put the new build on, all my cabinets that i had center holes with constraints holding them to center (ie w/2 or h/2) have all changed to h/50.8 or w/50.8. i was just wondering has any one else had this problem?? and is there an easyier way to fix this rather then going through my entier cabinet libary and changing the constraints??
If anyone could let me know it would be very helpfull
Thanks.

I have added a Drawer Box if you are interested to see what im talking about, You will see the holes in the deck have the problem as well as the hole in the bottom back of the drawer front is the same.

Greg,

You will unfortunately have to edit each one to resolve this. In previous versions eCabinet Systems made assumptions on equations that caused problems for entries requiring dimensions. The resolution unfortunately caused the symptoms you are seeing. 5.2 bld 2 (due out soon) will have the additional ability in the constraint manager to have non-unit numbers in equations along with numbers with units. The numbers not having units must be surrounded in brackets. example: W/[2]+5mm. Fixing it the way you have been will work fine as long as you do not switch back and forth between dimension formats, but when you get 5.2 you may want to implement this new method for future work. Again, sorry for the inconvenience.
Regards,
