Ladder

Framer

Ladders are always added between two studs. Locate the ladder macro at the location of a cabinet, for example. When you generate pieces to a panel, the program adds the extra ladders at even intervals in vertical direction between the nearest studs. Select the parameters of the extra ladders in a dialog box.
