Todd,

You mentioned receiving an error regarding the CNC code for the center panel while researching this issure. Here is some additional info I learned today that might help.
The steps to duplicate this error are below.

1. Define a board stock called 1/4 Ply with dimensions 48 X 96 X 1/4.
2. Select Prefs/settings > Default 5 piece Door Details for Cut List and set the panel board stock to the newly created 1/4 Ply stock.
3. Create a simple cabinet
4. Take cabinet into Door Editor
5. Choose Thermwood Cathedral door
6. Select Build In House
7. Select Details for Cut List
8. Select Panel Board Stock and choose 1/4 Ply from the list
9. Add a single door to the cabinet
10. Create the .twd file
11. Take it to the control and open the file in the 5 piece door program
12. Try to write the CNC and it will fail with the "An error occured while trying to write CNC code for the center panel of door name Panel." every time.

If you omit step #8 in the above sequence it will write the CNC just fine every time.

I haven't tried this with the other Thermwood door types yet.

I hope this helps.
