Fast Fill allows you fill up a room full of cabinets very quickly. However Fast Fill has its limitations. Fast Fill will only put in basic cabinet types, if you have a complex design in mind, you should draw it up yourself. If you keep this in mind, Fast Fill can save you some time with more simple designs and give you a base to create more complex designs.

HINTS:
If you have a specific idea on where you want your cabinets to be, you should put them up manually, it is much easier and quicker to place cabinets where you want them, then to try and get fast fill to read your mind. You can use fast fill to fill in between cabinets. For example, if you know where the sink will be and where the refrigerator will be, put them up and fast fill will fill in-between them. If you want a drawer base somewhere in-between those two, you will have to put it up manually, fast fill only does standard base cabinets, but you can always fill around the drawer base using fast fill.
