Bead Door Design
Draws a series of bead (moulded) doors from a width × height list; edge allowance and gap between panels are fixed.

Add-ins
GMacros Add-in
Form-based design tools that draw door series from a dimension list in one go, plus everyday drawing helpers. One button on the GMacros ribbon tab; tools are picked from an icon palette.
Raised Panel Door Design
Generates the inner panel offset contours from the outer door size, with as many steps and tool directions as you set.
Slat Door Design
Draws slat-grid door panels from edge margin, rebate margin, slat thickness and vertical/horizontal slat counts.
Louvre Door Design
Draws a series of louvre doors from edge margin, bottom/middle rails and Z bottom/top values.
Panel Door Design
Draws an interior door leaf from top/bottom/left/right stile-rail sizes and panel layout, then repeats it per the size list.
Reverse Direction
Fixes the cutting direction and start point of the selected geometries in one click; contours are not redrawn.
GMacros 3D Wave Panel
Three macros for wavy doors and decorative panels: regular wave lines, organic flowing surface and a panel scaled from a ready 3D model. 3D roughing/finishing you define in Alphacam as usual.
3D Wave v1 — Regular
Draws evenly spaced wave lines across the door size with Z top/bottom depth.
3D Wave v2 — Organic
Generates irregular, fabric-like flowing wave lines; the pattern does not repeat on the same panel.
3D Wave v3 — STL Model
Picks a ready 3D model shipped with the package, scales it to your panel size and places it in the drawing.
NirvanaAI — Text to 3D Model + AI Help
A separate NirvanaAI tab in Alphacam. Describe the motif in plain words; a relief 3D model is prepared, imported into the drawing and scaled to size. Priced per generation; only a successful generation uses a credit. The licence also includes two free helpers: Alphacam Assistant (Q&A) and CNC Cutting Advisor (speed/feed suggestions).
Generate (Text to 3D)
Prepares the motif you describe as a relief 3D model and adds it to the drawing.
Last Generation
If waiting was cancelled or the connection dropped, re-polls and downloads the last generation started on this computer.
Alphacam Assistant (Q&A)
Type your question about using Alphacam or GMacros; you get a step-by-step answer with menu paths. No extra charge: 10 free questions in total with a NirvanaAI licence.
CNC Cutting Advisor (speed / feed)
Enter material, thickness, cutter diameter/type and the operation; you get starting values for spindle speed, feed, plunge, depth of cut and direction. Never exceeds your machine limits. No extra charge: 10 free suggestions in total with a NirvanaAI licence.
Scale
Brings the last STL model in the drawing to a target X/Y/Z size; with keep-ratio on, changing one axis changes the others.
Macros
GMacros Cabinet Door Macros
10 macros for kitchen/cabinet doors: door bodies (flat, framed, glazed, louvred), hardware holes and size calculation. Each macro asks a few values and draws on layers.
Flat Door
Draws a flat door rectangle at the given size, optionally with corner radius.
Framed Door
Draws a framed door with its panel groove according to the stile width.
Glazed Door
Draws the glass opening and the glass rebate pocket on a framed door.
Louvred Door
Draws evenly spaced louvre slats inside a framed door.
Hinge Cup Holes (Ø35)
Distributes Ø35 cup holes and screw holes evenly according to the door height.
Finger Groove
Draws the finger groove along the top edge for handleless doors.
Edgeband Marks
Writes the edges to be banded as labels around the door so the operator reads it from the drawing.
Door Size Calculator
Subtracts the gap from the carcass opening, calculates 1- or 2-leaf door sizes and draws them.
GMacros Door Macros
For interior door leaves: hinge pockets, lock/handle holes and decorative frames; handle, hinge and edgeband macros are shared with the Cabinet Door package.
Door Hinge Pockets
Distributes 2–4 hinge pockets evenly along the door height and adds screw holes.
Door Decorative Frames
Draws 1–4 decorative frame strips on the door face according to the edge margin.
Hinge Cup Holes (Ø35)
Distributes Ø35 cup holes and screw holes evenly according to the door height.
Edgeband Marks
Writes the edges to be banded as labels around the door so the operator reads it from the drawing.
GMacros Cabinet Macros
10 macros for carcass parts: sized parts and shelf sets, System 32 and hinge holes, back panel groove, layer, labels and sheet report. Selection-based macros ask for the selection when they run.
Sized Rectangular Part
Draws a single part at the given size, optionally with corner radius.
Shelf Panel Set
Draws N identical parts laid out in rows according to the sheet width.
System 32 Shelf Holes
Draws front and back rows of 32 mm pitch shelf holes on a side panel.
Hinge Cup (Ø35)
Distributes 2–5 Ø35 cup holes with screw holes according to the door height.
