You may want to use a template via the parts bin, as follows:

in conjunction with reading the section titled "Dynamic Parts" on Roland's Advanced Editing webpage.

Looks like you're missing a valid search location for Donors. You can check under Prefs->LDraw->Search (library) paths…

Is there an entry for Donors there?

Ah, it's showing as an Unofficial library rather than Donors. Try choosing the "donors" type option (the row of buttons), then re-launch LDCad and see if it's better.
