When designing a space, modules with the same depth, height, panel or board thickness, clearance distances, and fittings are usually used. To facilitate these settings, Promob provides the Dimension Configuration tool.
Through a series of variables, Promob allows adjustments to the standard measurements of the product lines. You can define, either before starting to modularize or after finishing the project, the height of the lower cabinets, the depth of the wardrobes, among other settings.
These adjustments can be made for each project and aim to speed up the process, since the user does not need to change the dimensions module by module.

How to access the Feature Configurator
1. Access the 3D environment in Promob and click the Configure Features button on the top toolbar or go to the menu Tools - Configure Features
How to save and access configurations in the Feature Configurator
1. Changes made in the Features Configurator are saved automatically after the first change. The word changed at the end of the configuration name identifies which configuration has been changed.
2. By clicking the indicated arrow, configurations above the dotted line are Promob's default configurations. Those below the dotted line are user-modified configurations.
3. To delete a configuration, select it and click Delete. Note that only modified configurations can be deleted. System configurations cannot be deleted.
4. To cancel the changes made, click the cancel or close option. All changes made will be canceled.
IMPORTANT: Promob saves the dimension configurations made in the project together with the .promob file. Therefore, when the project is opened on other computers, if a compatible configuration is not found, the configurations are displayed under the Project Configuration option.
How to rename edited configurations in the Features Configurator
1. Locate the desired configuration, click the rename button, and in the window that opens, enter the new configuration name. Then, click OK.
How to duplicate configurations in the Features Configurator
1. Select the desired configuration and click the Duplicate Configuration option.
2. Enter the name for the configuration and click OK.
How to transfer configurations made in the Features Configurator to other computers (via assistant)
There are two ways to transfer configurations made in the Features Configurator.
The first is to access the menu File - Export - Dimensions Configuration.
IMPORTANT: it is necessary to save the configurations before exporting them to other computers.
1. To import dimension configurations, click the menu File - Import - Dimensions Configuration.
The second way to transfer configurations is by accessing the Features Configurator. On the screen, locate the configuration you wish to export and then click the indicated option. Save the file wherever you want.
1. To import the configuration on another computer, access the Features Configurator and click the indicated option, locate the exported file from the other computer, and complete the import.
How to apply Features Configurator settings to modules and 3D projects
The Features Configurator allows applying changes in three ways. The options are:
Apply: the changes are applied to the next items to be added to the project. The selected configuration will be the default for future projects.
Apply to selected items: the changes are applied to the selected items in the environment as well as to the next items to be added.
Apply to existent items: the changes are applied to all items in the environment as well as to the next items to be added.
