Group addition and deleting of units

Here you can insert automatically 3 kinds of units: doors, drawers fronts and  handles.

For correct work the base points of the units have to be determined at its creation, according to the used standard in the program  (front bottom left).

Generates doors / fronts  - Sets generation of combination of doors to the chosen cabinet.

Doors group addition - Sets generation of one door over the entire face of the chosen cabinets in the list.

Doors/Fronts replacement – sets the replacement of the chosen in the list doors.

Handles adds - Sets the generation of the chosen from the menu model handle , depending on the chosen configuration towards chosen in the list doors.

Handles replacement -Sets the replacement of chosen in the list handles with the indicated in the menu model.

The list of participating in the drawing units is sorted automatically, depending on the activated operation. To restore the full list, use button List of participating in the drawing units.

List of participating in the drawing units -it represents button ,which restores full list with units of the job ,which have attitude to its functionality. It is not include horizontal and vertical worktops , plinths and cornices in the job.

Searching for a unit in menu - Purpose of operation is quickly to find the specified model of handle from the menu for attaching to doors. Enter into a field the user name of unit or its first symbols. For searching of next coincidence click the button to the right from a field.

- Shows a list with parameters  by default in the module.

Position of handles on X from a corner,Position of handles on Y from a corner - Set distance of the handles base point from the door edge. Distance on X moves handle on door length and distance on Y moves it on height. Thickness of doors - Parameter value is used at automatically positioning of inner doors. Defines their position on Y (i.e. what to be the distance of the door in cabinets depth) . Automatically decrease the generated doors length  -  The entered value uses for automatic decreasing of the sizes of the generated doors (front). Therefore when you enter the sizes of doors it is unnecessary to reduce their lengths.

Automatically decreases the generated doors height - Automatically detracts the height of the generated doors with the entered value. When you add a group of fronts it is unnecessary to reduce their size manually. For example: the first door - Lenght=30, Height = 36; the second door - Lenght = 30, Height = 36, Position on X = 30. If the value for deprivation is 0.4cm., we get two doors with sizes: Length = 29.6 and Height = 35.6 (the sizes include the edgeband thickness, too).

Transfers code of uniqueness to doors and fronts - When this option is active , the code of uniqueness of chosen cabinet will transfers automatically to the doors and fronts , generated to it too.

Transfers the name of unit with fixed price to the door and fronts to it - When this option is checked, the name of the units with fixed price will transfers automatically to the doors and fronts generated to it, too.

Addition of handles

In list Register of units participating in the job, select doors and fronts, which you want to have handles. Choose from menu the handle you need. Below are shown possible variants for handles position. Choose position with left mouse button over the respective icon (left, right, in centre or two-one on left and one on right). Value of parameter From the left-From the  right of doors and fronts refers to left, right and left + right  handles. Handles position on doors height is automatically defined for wall and base cabinets as the demarcation is 100 cm height of cabinet base point and depends on value of parameter From below-From above towards door/front position. You can see the sizes of the chosen handle under the field. These fields are  active and this allows you to change the values in them (enter the new value in the field). The edition concerns to the current generating only. The last selected position of handles is saved  for next loading of module, too.

Press Cabinet and select unit in the drawing or specify it in the list Register of participating in the drawing units (use  double click of the left button on the selected row).  Enter the fronts sizes and position (on height) for the chosen cabinet (Position on Z). Use the keys Tab or Enter for moving  the cursor between the fields. If you want to add group of doors or fronts with different sizes and positions,  you have to edit the values in the fields manually. Put the mouse pointer into the field. It becomes an arrow.  Mark the value into the field. Enter a new value. The positions on Z and X are defined to the cabinet base point (front bottom left). Then press the button Add units. The module Doors - Generating of multielement unit  loads.You have to choose a door model for addition here. The shown example adds two doors to the generated cabinet.

Use the buttons on the right of the fields to return in the drawing and to take the dimensions of the necessary distances. The measured distances loads into the fields.

Position on X - Sets a position of the generated doors  to the cabinet base point on its length.

Position on Y  - Sets a position of the generated doors to the cabinet base point on its depth.

Position on  Z - Sets distance of the generated doors on the cabinet  height.

- That button cancels the entered values for dimensions and position of door or front in the row.

inner door - The option is active only for units generated by the module Cabinet  for these designs:

1.  The bottom and top overlaps the end panels - when bottom, top and the end panels haven't a front distance. The end panels can have a deviation inside. 

2. End panels overlap the bottom and top  - The option Top above can be checked or not. For  bottom and top the deviation can be  Upwards and Downwards.

You can put doors inside a cabinet. Select the option and press one of the buttons for automatic allocation. The doors  parameters and sizes load automatically . The generated door will be placed inside the cabinet (between top, bottom and end panels). If the option is not checked, the doors cover the whole cabinet face. Before you set doors or fronts with uncovered edgeband, you ought to have been set a front distance for the shelves (respectively drawers), which has to be equal to the thickness of the fronts (doors). In that case they won't overlap each other.

When bottom and /or top have a negative front distance or the end panels have a deviation inside, the doors cover the cabinet end panels and if  the bottom or top have not deviation - cover them  too.These settings apply to units generated with the module Cabinet.

- The operation automatically calculates and adjusts parameters of doors for design " 2 doors " to the chosen cabinet. When calculates the position and sizes of the doors,the program checks whether the cabinet has a baseboard (individual or common) or legs. If the cabinet has only legs when defines the position of doors on Z uses the leg's height. If the cabinet has a baseboard, the priority takes the value of baseboard height. Select cabinet and press the button. For sink cabinets takes the worktop thickness too. The length and position of two doors calculates depending on  the position  of the partition on X. The first door cover the left end panel and first half of partition thickness, and the second - the second half of the partition thickness to the cabinet right end panel. It is used for unit with one partition mostly. For the other cabinets sets two equal doors.

Choose cabinet and press this button to attach doors.

-The option automatically calculates the position and dimensions of 1 door to the chosen cabinet depending on  the baseboard height (individual or common) and height of the legs. For sink cabinets takes the worktop thickness, too. It is used for unit without partitions mostly. For the other cabinets sets one door that cover  the whole face of the unit.

 -If the chosen cabinet has not partitions and there are drawers to it, the information for the drawers fronts sizes (length and height)  loads in the table automatically. The specified sizes can be edited. When there is entered front distance for generated drawer, it will be loaded too.  In this way you can create an effect of the opened drawer (enter a  negative value for front distance). This distance value loads into the field Position on Y.

- This operation is similar to the  above mentioned, but concerns an one partition cabinet.

-This operation is similar to the above the mentioned, but concerns cabinet with two partitions.

 - The operation automatically calculates the sizes and generates two doors, set one over the other, towards the chosen cabinet.

- The operation automatically calculates and adjusts parameters of doors for a design  3 doors  to the chosen cabinet. When calculates the position and sizes of doors, the program checks whether the cabinet has a baseboard (individual or common) or legs. If the cabinet has only legs when defines the position of doors on Z uses the leg's height. If the cabinet has a baseboard, the priority takes the value of baseboard height. 

The first door cover the left end panel and first half of the first partition thickness; the second - from the second half of the first partition thickness to the second half of the second partition; and the third - the second half of second partition to the cabinet right end panel.

- The operation automatically calculates and adjusts parameters of doors for a design  4 doors  to the chosen cabinet. When calculates the position and sizes of doors, the program checks whether the cabinet has a baseboard (individual or common) or legs. If the cabinet has only legs when defines the position of doors on Z uses the leg's height. If the cabinet has a baseboard, the priority takes the value of baseboard height. It is used for unit with three partitions mostly. For the other cabinets sets four equal doors.  

- If the chosen cabinet has three partitions and there are drawers to it, the information for the drawers fronts sizes (length and height) loads in the table automatically. The specified sizes can be edited. When there is entered front distance for generated drawer, it will be loaded too. In this way you can create an effect of the opened drawer (enter a negative value for front distance). This distance value loads into the field Position on Y.

-  This operation calculates and sets automatically  the parameters for two corner doors under an angle of 90 degrees in the front right corner of the unit for units created by module Cabinet. Determinant for calculation the doors' size is cutting of cabinet bottom. If the bottom has rectangular shape, the generated  doors will be  30 cm / 300mm long. If the cabinet construction contains baseboard or legs, their height  will be taken into account when defines the height and position of doors. 

-  This operation calculates and sets automatically  the parameters for two corner doors under an angle of 90 degrees in the front left corner of the unit for units created by module Cabinet. Determinant for calculation the doors' size is cutting of cabinet bottom. If the bottom has rectangular shape, the generated  doors will be  30 cm / 300mm long. If the cabinet construction contains baseboard or legs, their height  will be taken into account when defines the height and position of doors. 

Delete units - Select an element from the list Participating in the drawing units or some simultaneously and press the button.

After each insertion or deleting of units the inventory with participating in the drawing units is refreshed automatically on base of the current contents of the drawing. The list doesn't include the baseboards and worktops. The added units in drawing are rotated automatically depending on the angle of rotation of units, to which they are attached.

Replaces units - The operation is intended for group or individual replacement of units from the drawing with others. The added new units automatically get  the position, angle of rotation and sizes of the units, chosen for change. 

This example replaces all doors from one model in the drawing. 

1. Choose in the list with participating in the drawing units the door model which you want to replace.
2. Select the option Doors Add/ Change.
3. Press Replaces units.
4. Choose a door model for replacement.

Handles replacement:

1. Choose some handles for change in the list with participating in the drawing units.
2. Choose the handle model from the menu in the left part of the window for change.
3. Press Replaces units.
