All cabinets:
The width, height, depth and all stile & rails can be edited for each cabinet. If there is a box for a partition, you can just leave it blank if you do not want a partition.

Scribe left and scribe right is the amount that you want the face frame to overhang on that side of the cabinet. If you leave these fields blank, you will see an 'F' ( for finished ) on the corresponding bottom corner of the drawing. Entering a value in these fields will adjust the cabinet box sizes so that the face frame overhangs. The program will then place a 'U' ( for unfinished ) on the corresponding bottom corner of the drawing and below that the amount to overhang the face frame will be printed.

Each opening with doors can be set to have 1 or 2 doors. The overall door size is figured by adding twice the door overlay to the opening width and height. If the opening is set for two doors, the door width is figured as 1/2 the opening width minus 1/2 the Door Gap for paired doors plus the door overlay.
Location is the dimension from the left edge of the wall to the left side of the cabinet.

Off floor is the dimension from the floor to the bottom of the cabinet.

From wall is the amount to place the cabinet away from the wall.

Wall # is the wall that a cabinet is to be placed on.

The crown left, front and right lets you decide if you want crown to be drawn that side of the cabinet on the elevation views.

Crown overlay is the amount that the crown overlays the top of the cabinet. The crown height is the height of the crown. A typical 3 1/4 inch crown moulding is about 2 1/4 high when installed.
