Changing materials in custom layout and batch

Post by Scott Marshburn »

I would like to thank the thermwood team for there hard worked on this new release. The new features and fixes have worked well for us thus far.
There is of Corse 1 request that I would very much like to see. This is the ability to change the face frame materials in the custom layout as well as the batch area like we can change the sheet stock materials.
I could come up with a very long list of what I would like to have but for the most part this would help a lot due to the fact that our libraries are designed with our most popular materials. Then changed in the batch and/or custom layout as per required.

Scott,

Create a sheet stock named "X" Hardwood then use it for your faced frames. You can then change it to "Y" Hardwood using the change material feature.

Yes Kerry That is true. But then all of that face frame material will be shown as sheet stock and would not be on the board stock cut list or the material reports as board stock, also it would show at the machine and would have to be filtered.
