Re: Cabinet numbers
Hi Joe,
The cabinets are numbered in the order that you bring them into a room. If you modify or change a cabinet ecabinets will automatically renumber the changed cabinet. The way that I work around this issue is to redraw the room after I have the changes that I want. If any one has a better solution please let me know. I hope that this is something that has been added in version 6.

Hi Joe,
Thanks for the complaint on the website. One of best things that I was told once is to all ways document your work. It is money well spent to have a professional do the photography. It is all about the lighting.
Thanks for sharing your web site. Have you ever recieve any work from someone visiting your site?

Re: Cabinet numbers
Chris I do get a few orders from the website and I use it as a catalog of my work but truthfully I haven't added work to it in years.
Nick it would make things simpler when building the cabinets to have them in order. as it is now I have the corner cabinet as 1 & 2 top corners as 3 & 4 then i finish off the uppers then back to the base cabinets would be nice just to start left to right on the base then come back again L > R with the uppers. just the way my mind works.

It never fails that when I show a floor plan to a architect, contractor or homeowner they always ask why is that cabinet numbered out of order. So it does not make you look profesionial.
It also confuses the installers. For example on a job we were installing just the base cabinets that were number 1 - 12 so the installers loaded the truck with those cabinets. When they started to install they noticed that the sink cabinet was numbered #21. So they had to make a extra trip back to the shop. Also when cabinet #6 is changed to #21 you are thinking that cabinet #6 did no get made, loaded or cut. So it would help eliminate the opportunity of mistakes.

Re: Cabinet numbers
This is why I asked the question. If it is a matter of numbering the units in the drawings one can put in ones own numbers manually in the line drawing editor.

Re: Cabinet numbers
Yes, you can add numbers to the Line Drawing or you can even shuffle the existing numbers, but the labels and reports will not change.
