Ensuring that your construction method is setup is critical. Incorrect construction setup will lead to incorrect pricing and manufacturing reports. If you are unsure of the setup option, please call our support hotline.
Corner and angled cabinets are treated as separate sub cabinet groups in CabMaster because customers often use different construction methods for these types of cabinets i.e. a standard floor cabinet is constructed differently than an angled floor corner cabinet.

Setting the position and how the mullions are machined are done on the Mach. Shelf/Mullion > Mullions page.
