Edit Settings

       In this section you are able to make advanced system changes that can help create a cutlist or price list. Any set variable (a price or part item that has a # in front of it) can be set in this section. For example, you may have found after working with your parts that faceframe material uses a set variable called #FFmat. In the set setting section, you may set #FFmat to a chosen item which will "override" the value in your part list.

Example:

       The part list you are currently using has #FFmat set to 3/4" Solid Wood. This means that in the a-setup file in your part list in section one, the first line says:

Set,   #FFmat=        3/4" Solid Wood        ,Faceframe Material

       If for a particular job you wanted to use material other than 3/4" Solid Wood you could use this section to set #FFmat to another type of material. This is handy because you wouldn't need to create a new part list or edit your current part list to make this one temporary change. Note: If you are commonly needing to change to another type of material or setting it would be a better idea to make the change permanently in the part list or price list. The program is designed to save you time with the least amount of editing per job as possible. If you have a specific question about this please feel free to contact us.
