    In This Topic

    This is a listing of all the items currently on the drawing. In this view, library items such as cabinets can be added which have no visual representation in the plan, and also items which do not represent any physical items can also be added which allow pricing information to be added which is independent of any specific cabinet. All items added up here, even if they are not visible in the plan view, will be included in reports and exported information about the drawing.

    In List View all you need to do is select the basic cabinet type and change properties for each cabinet as required. It is important, however, to understand that in "List View" you are setting up a job and amending cabinets for the current job only.
