The typical furniture door (frame-and-panel style) is constructed from five main components:

• Stiles (2 pieces) named in Figure 2 B4 and B2: These are the vertical members of the frame. They run the full height of the door and are usually fixed in place.
• Rails (2 pieces named) B1 and B3 named in Figure 2: These are the horizontal members—one at the top (top rail) and one at the bottom (bottom rail). They connect the stiles and complete the rectangular frame.
• Central Panel (1 piece) P named in Figure 2: This is the fill section, which sits inside grooves machined into the stiles and rails. The panel is designed to float within the frame.

The software currently supports two fundamental joint types for assembling the door frame components, and additionally, a monolithic frame that has no joints.

• Butt Joint: A joint where the end of one piece (typically a rail) is joined directly to the flat face of another piece (typically a stile) without any angled cuts. This is a straightforward, easy-to-manufacture joint. The program supports butt joints in different orientations.

In this software they are named VERTICAL and HORIZONTAL depending on preferred arrangement for output. More about this in Intersection Parameter

• Miter Joint: A joint where two pieces are joined at an angle, typically 45°, to form a 90° corner. Future implementation may implement other angles for miter joints. Both adjoining members (e.g., stile and rail) have their ends cut at complementary angles. This joint offers a clean, seamless look and it should support all kind of profiles. In this software Miter joint is named TRIANGLE.

* Monolithic Frame with Separate Panel: In this construction type, the door frame (comprising stiles and rails) is manufactured as a single fused or milled piece, without mechanical joints between frame members. Although the frame appears to have traditional components (B1–B4), it is structurally continuous. The central panel (P) remains a separate piece, inserted into grooves in the frame to allow for natural movement. In this software Monolithic Frame is named SOLID.

• Profile Definition: A profile defines the cross-sectional shape of a frame board pieces, panel (Solid) or Extrusion geometry, typically represented as a 2D outline (e.g., a groove, bevel, or decorative contour). Profiles are usually specified using SVG paths or parametric curves and are extruded along a path to form 3D geometry. In this software, the profile guides the shape of the extrusion for parts like stiles, rails, and panels. It will determine all values or output vertices in the Z direction (X direction) in Blender.

The frame is defined by four boards arranged in a rectangular pattern. The coordinate system defines each board's placement (see Figure Graphical Representation of Board Positions). The numeric values are always in millimeter.

• The coordinate system origin is at the bottom-left corner. This is always the position of the first board. It should be always set at $(0,0)$.
• Each board includes a required position $(x, y)$. The rotation angle is handled automatically by the program.
• Unit: is always set in millimeters. The examples uses for boards with dimensions of (609.6 mm = 24 inches).
• The boards currently could be only 4.

Please look on next page for graphic for more clarity.

Frame Dimensions graphic layout explanation:

The dimensions of the example frame on the figure are as follows:

• Width: 609.6 mm — The horizontal span of the frame, measured between points A–B and D–C.
• Height: 609.6 mm — The vertical span of the frame, measured between points A–D and B–C.

"frame": [
	{
		"board": "1",
		"position": {
			"x": 0,
			"y": 0
		},
		"profile": "board"
	},
	{
		"board": "2",
		"position": {
			"x": 609.6,
			"y": 0
		},
		"profile": "board"
	},
	{
		"board": "3",
		"position": {
			"x": 609.6,

	{
		"board": "4",
		"position": {
			"x": 0,
			"y": 609.6
		},
		"profile": "board"
	}
]

This example shows how to define board positions using JSON. Each board is given a unique “board” ID and a 2D coordinate (x, y) to specify its placement within the frame layout. Boards align with the overall structure, occupying specific corners or edges of the rectangle.

The global parameter intersection takes a string value and controls how all four boards meet when generating the 3D mesh. It applies to every board in the frame assembly and is required to be set in JSON format.

intersection = "VERTICAL";

{
	"intersection": "VERTICAL",
	"quality": 50,
	"uv": {
		"patchSize": 150,
		"uvorigin": "ORIGIN",
		"uOffset": 0,
		"vOffset": 0
	},
	"paths": [ … ],
	"frame": [ … ]
}

• VERTICAL

Use for traditional stile-and-rail frames—boards abut along vertical faces.

• HORIZONTAL

Common in stacked or layered panel constructions—boards abut along horizontal faces.

• SOLID

Continuous geometry for frame and panel; panel remains a separate element without visible seam.

• TRIANGLE

Default 45° complementary cuts; future releases may allow custom angles.

• Changing intersection may requires changing profile as well if it is not build to be cut as butt joint.
• Ensure profiles are compatible (e.g. TRIANGLE supports any profile shape).
• Default value is VERTICAL.

Below is a typical JSON fragment defining a complex-shaped innerPanel using the SOLID1_3 model:

"innerPanel": {
	"model": "SOLID1_3",
	"profile": "panel",
	"path": "placeholder_SOLID1_3",
	"trimProfile": "trim",
	"trimPath": "trimFrame",
	"offset": {
		"panel": {
			"translation": { "x": 0, "y": 0, "z": 0 },
			"dimensions": { "x": 0.0, "y": 0.0 }
		},
		"trim": {
			"translation": { "x": 0, "y": 0, "z": 0 },
			"scale": { "z": 0.01 }
		}
	}
}

"innerPanel": {	
	"model": "SOLID1_1",
	"depth": 6.3,
	"offset": {	
		"x": 5,	
		"y": 5,	
		"z": 2	
	}
}

The innerPanel object supports three models via the innerPanel.model parameter:

• “SOLID1_1”: A standard prismatic (rectangular) panel. When this model is selected, the depth parameter is required if no profile is specified.
• “SOLID1_3”: A panel with a complex shape, defined by a custom path. This model requires the profile and path parameters.
• “EMPTY”: No panel is generated (a void). If this model is selected, all other parameters in the innerPanel object are ignored, and only the frame is generated.

• depth (number[mm]):

Thickness of the panel. Required only for the “SOLID1_1” model when no profile is given.

• profile (string):

The name of the milled profile for the panel's surface. Required for “SOLID1_3” and optional for “SOLID1_1”.

• path (string):

The “id” of a path that defines the custom shape of the panel. Required only for the “SOLID1_3” model.

• trimProfile (string):

The path id name of the milled profile used for the trim.

• trimPath (string):

The path id of a path that defines the trim's shape, used for milling or cutting the board.

• centering (string):

Specifies how the innerPanel is centered relative to the frame before any offsets are applied.

• *Type: string Default: CAVITY Required: No Valid options: * FRAME — center the inner panel relative to the frame boundaries. * CAVITY — center the inner panel relative to the cavity or cutout inside the frame. Illustration: [] [] Note: This parameter determines the initial positioning of the panel. Subsequent adjustments using offset will move or resize the panel relative to this centered position. * offset (object): An object that defines positioning and dimension adjustments for the panel and its trim. It has a nested structure: * panel: Contains transformations for the main panel. * translation: An object with x, y, and z keys for moving the panel in millimeters relative to the frame's center. * dimensions: An object with x and y keys for adjusting the size of a SOLID1_1 panel in millimeters. * trim: Contains transformations for the trim geometry. * translation: An object with x, y, and z keys for moving the trim in millimeters. * scale: An object with a z key for additive scaling on the Z-axis (e.g., 0.01 results in a scale of 1.01), useful for creating overlaps. Note: A legacy flat structure for offset** with top-level x, y, z keys exists but is not recommended for new configurations.
