Does it do this for all jobs or just this particular one. If it is just this one send me the job file so I can see what might be causing it.

To send me a job file:
1) Open the program and press the ‘Open job’ button
2) In the file dialog, right click on the job and select Send to>mail recipient
This will start an email with the file included as an attachment, send it to me.

Sure, if you're able to find and attach the file, you should be able to send it with gmail.

I click on create an .obj file and it seems like nothing happens? Any tips on how to get an obj file to try out the "Kersky" 3d Rendering? Thanks in advance!

Pretty much all you need is a wall and a cabinet on the wall. A folder named "Cabinet Planner Object Files" will be created in your Documents folder and the object file will be created within that folder.

I had a cabinet wall showing in elevation mode.
I MANUALLY created a folder called" Cabinet Planner Object Files " then it went through the 3d process but no file?

15 min later.....

I did a system search and it threw it into a document folder.
On the NEXT version. It would be nice to have some control over where to place documents. I normally push ALL documents off of my Hardrive with the OS on it. It keeps the computer running faster.

You shouldn't need to create the folder yourself.

Do a search on your system for a file named "<job name> Object file"

I did and found them. It puts them in an obscure my documents folder that I never use. The next update would be to have user select the drive and folder to use for saved files.
Thanks.
