Release Notes interiorcad 2022 F1 / F1.x / F2 / F2.x

Subdivide framed doors or drawers

Framed fronts can be subdivided by rails or stiles with multiple, different panels.

Custom Exports

This new feature allows you to tailor interiorcad's exports without the need to dive into Python code.

Hole line 3D

Totally revamped for 2022, this tools now creates hole lines which can be modified after being applied to a cabinet side. Best of all, performance of both placing and regenerating hole lines has been vastly improved compared to interiorcad 2021.

Continuous Partitions

Partitions can now optionally split a cabinet's top or bottom board (plus scribe or plinth if needed). The same applies to fixed shelves, they are now able to optionally split a cabinet's left or right side.

Continuous cabinet sides or top/bottom can now be configured with a custom protrusion
Cabinet 3D - New Button "Update" in Object Info palette
