Well, let me try again ... you gotta love computers!

Rob,

I designed a bar with all lower cabs and then printed off the layouts. When I was cutting the project I noticed that the bottoms were all 3/4" to long and hadn't been narrowed to allow for the back. I check the standards but couldn't see anything there to correct this. Is there something that I am missing?

For the bottom length it sounds like the “dado depth” is set to 3/8” and you don’t use dados. Go to the General Standards, set it to zero and then press the “Apply to current job” button.

Do you have a value entered for the “inset back depth”? This will decrease the depth of the bottoms.

Rob,

The dado depth was the problem with the length. Thank you.
The amount that back is recessed is set at 1/2" but isn't adjusting the width. I tried setting it to 3/4" and it took 1/4" off the width.
