Alternate Unit Input/Conversion Functionality in MV
In Microvellum & Innergy Design it would be nice to be able to use any unit type in any entry box and have it automatically convert it to the current unit, so if you are in Inches but you had a metric measurement for a feature you could input 127mm andAssociated products not moving with Wall
Anybody else noticing this? When using MVMOVE to move a wall the products associated to it used to move with the wall. This isn't necessarily a problem because the products are indeed still associated and will produce sections when selecting the wallFeature Request - Highlight Product When Selected in Product Viewer
This has probably been requested before, but it would REALLY help to have a product highlight in model space when it is selected in the Product Viewer. Right now you can do that in Part Properties, which is really nice - especially when parts have genericHow to Understand Error Messages
This question is twofold: 1) What in tarnation does all this mean? 2) What do you all do when these errors pop up. This is clearly written to someone who understands programming. I wish MV would target the user- (or do I really need to be at a level whereProducts Accidentally Turning Into Another Product??

Dimension Style is set to be Annotative. Dimensions Style has all standard scales loaded. Auto Scale is on. But the font size changes each time. When i read 'Auto Scale' i figure it means it will automatically annotatively scale text and dims to maintainChipfix connector
Has anyone added the chipfix? I'd like to add it, but I don't know how to the extra amount of material when nesting the part, that is necessary for the cnc operation.Angled sides
Hello community! We cannot figure out how to get the left side of this piece angled. The front piece no problem but we also need to get that side piece to angle so we get a "miter" in the corner. I thank you in advance for any suggestions?Lift Up Doors with Hinge + Lid Stay
Is there a way in the foundation library to switch the lift up doors to utilize a standard concealed hinge + a lid stay like this instead of a system like Aventos? I'm struggling to find a way to ge tthis type of combination of hardwarae with the outError freezed program
While editing a tall cabinet height, a pop up error that cause entire program to freeze. Can't click ok to close it. I inserted the cabinet using default dimensions then went back in to change the Height above floor and the cab height. Didn't happen beforeHow can I stop autocad dimension from asking each time "dimension text" input and just accept the default?
Instead of just 3 clicks, an additional click is needed to accept the default dimension. How can this be turned off? I've searched google and tried mtexted, dimcmdtextPerfect Graining - Fails for Vertical Grain
It would be awesome if we could have an option to only perfect grain Drawer Fronts (when using Vertical Grain) I feel like the whole perfect grain feature is only tailored to the US market which tends to use horizontal grain I am trying to nest a jobWhat drives these faceframe stiles?
I divided this cabinet with the bay calculator giving bay one 12" and bay three 12" with the middle equaling what's left (20") It's a faceframe cabinet. I cannot figure out why it put these two intermediate stiles where it did?? What's controlling thatZoomed WAY out

From searching around it look like MV used to have a tab in Product Prompt called "Internal Options". But I'm not seeing this tab. Is the best way to just "Add Part"?Cabinet Cutout Subassembly
How on earth does this work. To my knowledge there needs to be a machine token or a hardware item to do the cutout, however, there is no such thing?! Just a cutout icon that i cant see. Am I going insane and missing something obvious here?!Assign Render Materials Interface - Custom Colours

This is my first time using face frame cabinets, so maybe it has something to do with that? In Product Prompt, I have the height above floor AND the height of the cabinet what I need them to be but the back and bottom panels are hanging below the floorHow to create floating shortcut commands ?
When we use to use AutoCAD I was able to drag groups of commands off the toolbar and essentially have them floating in my model space where I could pin them together wherever I wanted.. It was efficient to take my most used commands & have them closeCertain Products Not Showing Up in 2D Plan Drawing

This would help out so much to assist with visual cues and catches. Also would help how its the part is going to face on the CNC bed. Different colors on each side of the face so we know know it will nest and render correctly based on materials.Feature Request: Layer Controls Within Properties Panel
This would just be a real time saver, I think. Whenever I'm deep in the weeds and moving things I will quickly want to move things to a hidden layer or just a different layer, or when I draw quick guidelines I want those to be on a guides layer and willDrawing a simple rectangle is hell

Currently a huge struggle for our teams is: When making any kind of changes to a cabinet, often times the change doesn't take effect OR the change comes out different than we expected. We are pretty sure this is usually due to that specific variable beingHave no BSB 2025 or 2026 activations.
OK.... I downloaded BSB 2026. Couldn't register it, received an email from support to delete a few files so the 'activate license'' pop up would show. I enter my ID & password and I get activation failed. No remaining activations. So forget 2026 and goAdding Custom Door Profile
