3.1 The Basic Structure of the Program

CABINdesigner has two main components:
Designer: This is the main part of the program. It includes the user interface that
enables you to edit the properties of your elevator cabin. To change dimension
values, just edit the corresponding property in the Properties docking window.
All changes are automatically implemented throughout the entire data model.
) In the standalone version of CABINdesigner, direct editing of components /
dimensions in the drawing and editing of the pre-defined sheets is not
available. All modifications are made via the CABIN components / Properties
docking windows. This makes the project development more efficient and
avoids the user from making mistakes.
Database: The specifications and geometrical data of cabin design components

are stored in the CABINdesigner database. DigiPara continually updates this
database with the latest components and data. In addition to this, users can also
enter their own components into the database (with the necessary DigiPara Suite
modules).
