Glass 3D and machining is supported in all DoorMaster LT doors that have a frame of some sorts. This consists of two machine steps, both of which can be machined from either side of the door, i.e. :-

1. one machine step cuts though the door and;
2. the other machine step provides a rebate for the glass.

The image used for the glass is that chosen from the Materials-Advanced > Door Options page of the Drawing Properties.

 

Glass page

Select the required profile on the DoorMaster LT > Profile Doors page of the Catalog/Drawing Properties.

The Glass page allows the setup of the machining using the following options...

Include Options

Upper and Lower Pane

Allows you to select whether the glass is On/Off in the Upper Pane and Lower Pane of a door. (Off is the default).

Include on Drawer Fronts

Whether or not Drawer Fronts or Drawer Banks include glass. This can also be overridden at cabinet level.

Glass is Rectangular

When a profile is not a rectangle (e.g. an Arched door) you can select whether the glass rebate is rectangular or shaped with the profile.

This option only shows when a profile is shaped.

 

Rectangular Rebate

For doors with a rectangular profile the rebate toolpath/s will always be rectangular. However, with a non-rectangular profile (e.g. Scalloped or Arched) the inside profile (if used) will always follow the profile shape, while the outside path is either a rectangle or can follow the profile (for when the glass itself is contoured). 

Example: Front (profiled) face with Profile and Glass

Front (profiled) face showing the Profile and Glass cut through toolpaths

Example: Back Face with Rectangular Rebate ON

Back face showing both inner and outer rebate toolpaths with the Rectangular Rebate option turned ON.

Example: Back Face with Rectangular Rebate OFF

Back face showing both inner and outer rebate toolpaths with the Rectangular Rebate option turned OFF.
