Q-CUT – OVERVIEW
1. INTRODUCTION
Q-Cut is a valuable tool for the wardrobe and shower screen industry. The program has been built with ease of use in
mind. Keeping the functionality of the platform simple allows a new user to easily navigate their way through the
program to build a complete wardrobe, walk-in, shower screen, splash back or mirror.
The program will effectively minimise time spent by staff handwriting job tickets, cutting it down from ten minutes to
just one.
The program has been divided into modules, allowing the user to purchase and use the modules required. See
Section 3 for more information.
2. GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE (GUI)
All Quixar™ Software products feature user friendly GUIs so that even beginners can navigate their way through

10. Importing/Exporting your Cutting List Data
If Q-Cut is linked with a CRM product that stores any sizes entered at the quote stage, Q-Cut will grab these
values and use them as default sizes for the product. Once measured, these sizes can then be over-written.
The entire sites products can be exported as a MS Excel file for measurers to open and amend the spreadsheet
on-site, then upload the file (with the correct measured dimensions) directly into Q-Cut. What does this mean?
When it comes time to computing, the correct sizes are already entered!
11. Plan View
Design a plan view for your product, adding multiple panels and designing each panel separately.
