hello guys,
i have designed a series of cabinets and they are all set to a standard material, when it comes to changing the material is there an easier way than to do it piece by piece, this would be the same for the edge banding also. just wondered if there was some way to change all of the material at the same time.
thanks leigh

Load all the cabinets you want to change the material in the batch area. Under the Batch Cabinets you will see a Blue box that says Change Sheet Stock. Click on this and then select your new material.

Re: Changing Material:
Be aware that this method affects only cabinets in the batch and is not a permanant change to the underlying cabinets.
If you want to change materials permantly you will have to load each into the Cabinet Editor, change materials and save the cabinet with the new materials. You can save the cabinet with the same name or create a new one if you want to keep both.

Re: Changing Material:
Is this the same for the edge banding, i have none on my cabinets as i am hoping to put the edge banding on when i am in the layout stages, is this possible? or do i have to create different directories with the types of edge banding on. I havent reached this stage yet as i am still designing but i would like to know in advance. If someone could let me know it would be much appreciated.
