OK, I've done some checking around, and haven't come across an answer. I am new to CP, so forgive my noobiness...

What is the assumed construction for 5 panel drawer fronts and doors?

I normally use a stacked stile and rail router setup for my 5 panel doors and drawer fronts, in either 5/8ths or 3/4 material.

I assume that the default setup in CP would use a similar setup, but want to verify before I start my fronts and doors.

If not, how should I be doing my fronts and doors for CP's defaults?

I know that if CP is setup differently, I can change it, but I have already had my guys cut the fronts and door stiles and rails to dimensions listed, and really don't want to redo that work. (6 drawer fronts, 7 doors.)

Thanks for your help. I did search the manual also, but couldn't find anything. It would really help if there was a section in the help files for all assumed construction methods and program default explanations. Finding this stuff through trial and error kinda bites...

The default setup is for 3/8" deep cutters with a 1/8" gap around the panels to allow for expansion/space balls.
