Form and Table Editors for Drawer Runners can be accessed in the Catalog/Drawing Properties on the Hardware > Drawers page.
The runner tables for Metal Standard drawers are those in <your CabMaster folder>\Table\DrawerMetalBox\
The following discusses available columns in tables and usage.

Drawer Base Vertical Positioning
The positioning of the drawer base in relation to the drawer front can be calculated in two different ways.
Checking the 'Include' option in either the Global or Cabinets settings will add the overlap to the Bottom Clearance for all drawers. This way the gap between the bottom of the drawer front to the bottom of the drawer base is the same for all drawers.
Gaps: BackGapWidth, BaseGapWidth, BaseGapDepth
BackGapWidth is the distance from the carcass end to the side of the back.
BaseGapWidth is the distance from the carcass end to the side of the drawer base.
BaseGapDepth is a shortening (or lengthening) of the drawer base.
The diagram below shows three possibilities.
FBaseGapDepth a similar option to BaseGapDepth, but for the front of the base (used with inner drawers).
Gap is the distance from the carcass end to the side of the drawer box.
The sizing of sink drawers can be set..
The Centre (C) void is between the mid drawer sides.
The Front (F) i.e. SinkDepth, is from the very front of the drawer box (including any front component) to the back of the mid back.
