Helpful Tips

  • Projects are Auto-saved so you will never lose your work.
  • Once a Drawing has been created, you can request a quote from the Project it belongs to.
  • The Project-Level's "Open" menu has multiple selections, including Open, Create Quote, Rename & Delete.
  • The Drawing-Level's "Open" menu has multiple selections, including Open, Rename & Delete.
  • When adding multiple connectors, they appear "stacked" and must be moved to show the connector(s) underneath.
  • For best results, use links to navigate within the software instead of your browser's forward and back buttons.
  • Some configurations may need to be modified by our Custom Metal team before manufacturing depending on your panel choice, layout and engraving text. In some cases, connectors must be rotated 90 degrees to allow room for engraving text above or below.
  • Apple Magic Mouse or similar input devices may have unexpected behaviour when moving connectors depending on custom scroll settings.
