Jack you will have to copy the files to your eCabinets/Cabinets/Whatever/
Folder then open it using the Cabinet Assembly Editor.

Opened the cabinet and looked at the settings. The deck is 52\". The cabinet is 52\".

If the deck is 52\" this will make the cabinet 52 1/2 long. A 1/2 too long.

For a 52\" cabinet the deck should be 51 1/2 (1/4 dado left of 3/4 finished end) and the top should be 51\" .The face frame right scribe side is at -10 3/4 ..Jack

You are right Jack.
It looks like the best way to get what you want is to make the cabinet 1/2\" short of what you need to fill the space.

The only other ways I could find is to add a 1/2\" left face frame scribe to the cabinet. These makes the box 1/2\" smaller but would cause problems with placing cabinets in a room for presentation(you would have to fudge them over 1/2\" to compensate for the scribe) and it would cause a problem when adding partitions.

You could simply build the cabinet with a 1/2\" right inset on the top and back with none on the deck and this would make your cutlist correct and your cab size correct. You would have to be sure to include that extra 1/2\" inset on shelves and your right end would not be visually correct.

Other than that I am out of ideas.
