The Catalog Properties are where the global defaults for cabinet construction etc. are set. These defaults can be overridden by Drawing Properties for individual jobs, which in turn can be overridden by Cabinet Properties.
ALL new users can and should set up your company details and other global setup defaults from the File > Prepare > Catalog Properties menu option.
CabMasterPro and higher software users can access the Library Catalog Manager to customise or create a new catalog.
Starter catalogs are included in the installation (...qim). Any changes will only come into effect upon opening a NEW drawing.
Refer to the CM-Cabinets Library User Guide for help on setting up your company details and other global defaults.
