MV_Undo or Restore Product from Drawing
Today I made a simple mistake. I thought I was deleting an added part but I erased my vanity I have been customizing and redlining for over a month now. If I had realized it right away, perhaps I could have quickly quit without saving, but alas, it autosaved
No more separate plan view products
I updated BrisCAD to Build #25.2.227.641. This is how we typically draw a room of cabinets. After drawing the 3D walls, we draw separate plan and elevation views from the 3D wall using 2D Drawings commands (see below screenshot). When we drop a cabinet

FEATURE REQUEST: Draw 2D Plan from Selected Products.
Currently, there is a command that allows you to DRAW 2D WALL(S) PLAN VIEW. This is a handy tool for those who like to have the 3D model separate from the 2D drawings within a drawing. The problem comes when you have products that aren't attached to a
FEATURE REQUEST - Allow to escape when doing pick points.
A nice and simple addition would be the allow the user to press escape when doing pick points to cancel out of it. There is no way to stop pick points once it's started. If I have a formula in the prompt and accidentally double click it, I'm screwed.
Missing Profile or something else for pocket door

BricsCAD and disappearing section dimensions
Anyone else using BricsCAD that when you draw your cabinet sections, you don't get the dimensions. When I save, close, and reopen the drawing, they are magically there. I really can't be saving, closing, and reopening my drawing every time I make a change
BSB MULTIPLE FEATURE REQUEST - Bring Back Autocad command / functionality
MEASUREGEOM - I made my own MEASUREGEOM command using lisp since Bricscad is missing what i would have thought would have been a very standard basic command, but today it showed me the wrong angle and now I'm worried that it has been misfiring somewhere

The Difficulty of No "Undo"
Please tell me there is SOME work-around to this. We learned in training that you should never "undo" in MV. OK, so surely there is some failsafe for human error, right? Today I went to erase what I thought was a part I added to a cabinet. I've been working
Multiple Regions Created

[Feature Request] Wipeout 2D Drawing Token

[Feature Request] EQ Functions working for 2D drawing tokens
Currently EQ functions don't work for drawing tokens like they do with parts. When needing to draw additional 2D to accompany those parts however, that gets obnoxious, since by definition EQ functions are an infinite array & drawing tokens aren't.
Windows & Doors not showing in 2D/3D OEM
Newbie here, so I apologize if this has been asked & answered. I searched the knowledge base, but searching for "window" brings up more about command windows. Currently running build 24.1.1010.641. When I add doors/windows in the walls (Window Options/Door

Die wall stud dado
Currently when machining die wall dados, they are too tight. I am trying to find where I need to change clearances. Even if and when the material thickness is changed, we still have to manually change machining. I am afraid that I will change something
3D Hardware DWG does match the drawing in the Graphics folder

How do you handle Diewall Rear Elevations?
I dont know what the easy solution is, but how do you wall take your elevations of a die wall? I know the "front" view is easy enough from 2d Draw Elevation, but how do you all manage to get an elevation of the reverse side. Is there an easy setting for
Premill & Fixed Shelf Dado
We use legacy premill for the shelf edges, so the parts are cut to the correct size from the CNC. Problem is the fixed shelves have the dado set too long and it leaves a gap between our edging and the shelf, weve been piecing bits back in as i forgot
BricsCAD and Layout Tabs
BricsCAD users, Have you ever tried selecting more than 1 tab to delete or to publish? In AutoCAD, you can do this. This isn't a MV issue, but can MV request this feature of BricsCAD? I would love to see this implemented.

Feature Request: Angled Dimension direction fix
Someday, I hope we see those sweet 3d dimension tokens that so many of us voted for. I also hold out hope for a fix to the angled dimensions being drawn the wrong (flipped) direction. This is what we currently get with dims that have different X and Y

Issues with Snaps
Does anyone else seem to be having issues with the snaps in BricsCad with just basic drafting? I feel like I am constantly adjusting points I snap too. Maybe I need to tweak a setting, but I was just wondering if anyone else was having the same issu
Switching "Construction Methods"
Changing the “construction method” for one cabinet in a room to dowel construction, from invisible fasteners in “Prompts”, does not change all parts. Why do we need to go into “Advanced Construction Options” to completely make changes to all parts for

Feature Request - Move Certain Toolfile Info Into Processing Stations
