Sending a file to another computer

[Gary Puckett]

I was wondering how do you go about giving another computer a file? I make my main drawing on my desk top and then send the file to my lap top to take to the client. The problem is when I copy the file to my laptop the images are not the same. So why when the file is copied doesn't all the images In the file copy?


Does that make sence?

Images are created when a cabinet is saved. If you want them on another computer, you have to either copy the JPG for each cabinet file you copy or open and save the cabinet on the other computer.

So I have to copy and send each image (color of walls, tile, color of cabinets )to the other computer ? Then when I send the file it will be the same as the original.

I'm no expert by any means, but it seems to me that if you created any unique items on your desktop (jpegs, custom wallpaper...) then you would have to copy those unique files to your laptop AND also re-associate the project to the file locations on your laptop as well.

When you open the project on your laptop, the project needs to know where those special files are located.

If nothing is unique, and all details are stock photos and wallpaper from the eCabinets program, you should not have a problem. I share projects with two computers just like you do, but nothing is "special" about them.

Good luck.

Cabinet A.hsf and Cabinet A.jpg unless you want to open and resave the cabinet file on the receiving PC. Plus, as Adam said above, any CUSTOM textures you are using must be copied.
