Using plywood for door panels

[Donald Thomson]

Is there a setting somewhere that I can specify to use 1/4" plywood for door panels? Or is there a way I can have eCabs tell me how many square feet of 1/4" door panel I need for a project?

In the sizing details for cutlist dialog when setting up my doors, I can specify different parameters, including door panel stock, but it seems I can only use solid stock, not plywood. TIA!

Hi Donald. You can set up a board stock named 1/4 sheet stock. Then export the cut list to excel. In excel you can extract the panel sizes using get and transform AKA power query. You can calculate the square footage or even export the panels into eCab. batch. I have a series of videos on how to creat a batch export in excel [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id6tBZK ...
