Most cad programs allow you to put a plus or minus amount after a measurement instead of having to do the math. Is this something we can get in ecabs?

Re: Ability to + or - an amount
Forrest,
We have had this functionality since pretty much the beginning. Just type 30-2 and press enter. Also, if you are in inches, you can type in 32mm and press enter and it will convert it for you.

Re: Ability to + or - an amount
Thanks Scott, I've used the mm conversion all along. So I've never tried to add and subtract by entering the original number again. Seems a little redundant but works either way.
As a test I opened a cabinet in CE and tried to +.75 but got a syntax error. So I removed the " symbol and placed the +.75 and it worked. Wish I thought of that a long time ago.
