For speed (if like me you are designing kitchens for a living) I have created a symbol library that contains all the "standard" options for kitchen cabinets:
150, 250, 260, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900, 1000 widths Highline, Drawerline, Drawerpacks, Appliance housings, wall units, curved units etc etc. With handings LH & RH
Once this is created a Design can be quickly created just by dragging in symbols, thus speeding up designing and changing things. Yes it take time to set up but once you have it will save time in the long run. You have to think that we need to make frontal, handle and worktop changes easy. I just drag in a symbol that replaces all my current frontal designs and the same for other elements. Setting up the Symbols is key for this. I do not have all the frontals on hidden layer like how the Furniture Maker works as this would not work for me. I have many hundreds of frontal designs and handle choices and can not comprehend editing hundreds of symbols when I want to add another design. I just create a new set of doors or handles as one symbol and drag it into my drawing and all the current frontals update with the new one.
