CabMaster Version

CabMaster Version 11 opening older drawings from previous versions

Introduction

Whilst Version 11 can open older CabMaster Drawings from V10.1 and backwards, this is not recommended as there are a lot unknown issues that could arise due to the improvements and bug fixes in the newer Version 11, versus those of the older Versions, both in stability and functionality.

When you open a drawing in your current version before you proceed with using the drawing you should make sure which version it belongs to.
In the drawing properties the very first page tells you what version you are running.

How to Check the Version

1. Go to Job Setup > About


TIP: if you find a drawing file on your computer and simply launch it, CabMaster will run with the last version that was running on your computer, so doing this will very frequently open in the wrong version if you are not careful which versions you are running, so we recommend you always open the version you want to run and use the "open drawing" choice and navigate to wherever that drawing is stored on your computer
