Cabinet Numbering and Spec Groups
Hello, I had an idea, not sure if it would actually be useful or not. But I notice when I get in a groove and am drawing a job, I can sometimes forget to either select the correct spec group, or forget to correctly number a product.

Hi, I am wondering if I copy a custom product into multiple product categories will the product be linked or will it be considered two different products? The reason I want to know is I want to have all of our custom products all in one Custom ProductFeature Request: Floating Shelf Hardware
It would be super ideal to have some of the popular floating shelf hardware pre loaded for the mitered shelf product, that would include a 3D and 2D block, and machine tokens. in particular, we use the Triade Pro system from RichelieuHardware 3D DWG not appearing
Hey ya'll, I'm trying to add a 3D dwg to hinge, but for some reason it's not showing up. The machining shows up, but the DWG is no where to be found. I'm thinking it's some kind of spreadsheet issue, but if anyone has any ideas I'd greatly appreciateMV CAD Technician - Available bandwidth for projects

I was curious what some best practices are for adjusting a wall to be angled now. Originally i had a room that on paper showed it was squared off. When we got to site for field dimensions it seems this rooms wing wall was angled. I dont know the easiestToolbox BSB - Crashes
Is anyone else having issues with Toolbox BSB crashing? All of our users are experiencing crashing, it's not like Toolbox OEM never crashed but certainly not as frequent.

Right now, in the Face Frame Library, setting the "Door Gap" and the "Horizontal Drawer Gap" in the "Face Options" tab has no effect on the size of the door/drawer fronts. It would be great to be able to specify the gap and have all of the overlays calculatedproduct viewer

Can anyone shed some light as to how to move hardware up to the centre of board thickness. I'm using 25mm and would like to centre the Lamello Divario. I have tried the Offset Z but doesn't seem to do anything.Adding finishes tied to Spec groups
As per the title, is is possible to add finishes that are tied to the spec group the cabinet was added with? For example a cabinet built with painted tulip fronts would be rendered that way and an island with oak stained fronts would be rendered thatLibrary Designer - Adding a prompt across multiple products
Build 25.1.129.641 Foundation 25.0813 I want to add two new prompts to multiple products that already have other similar prompts. I've added the new prompts to our Globals and in the Subassemblies, it would be helpful to have them on a local level. IBulkhead means selecting more than one wall
Adding a blukhead to wall means that when adding a product to it i get this error as it think its more than one wall.Rendering Options
What are people doing for rendering options with the move to BSB. BSB is a major downgrade for rendering and its a really hard janky system to get onboard with, made harder that its not me doing it mainly and therefore i haven't learnt the full ins andStop MV from adding SO many DRAWING SCALES
Is there a way to stop MV from adding so many annotative drawing scales??? Whenever MV draws the 2D ELEVATION (Not a cross section) it adds a bunch of un-necessary anno scales.shadowline corner releif

Hey everyone, Just wondering how people are getting on with the move from AutoCAD to BricsCAD with Microvellum. Personally, I’m finding it a bit tough to adjust – things just feel different, and it’s taking some getting used to.

We would like to see 3D Elevation Tokens that work in much the same way as 2D plan tokens, drawing automatically when you draw your 3D product. This way, once we have the 3D products in, you could have viewports set up to automatically show the layersFEATURE REQUEST: Blum and Salice Face Frame Hinge Plates added to FF Library

Hello Microvellum world! At our shop we're adding some buyout accessories that have set widths, for example, a pull-out Pant Rack. These racks come in set widths of 18” 24” or 30” So it’s crucial that the cabinet’s ID (internal dimension) matches oneAssociative Hardware Issue

Some item numbers populate with the correct text height. Others populate and are illegible. The only solution I've found is to manually edit each individual annotative text height for each item. This just randomly started to occur. Does anybody know theItem Number Locations 2D plan Drawings
Is there a way to control the Item Number placement in the generated 2D Plan drawings? I've set my _ ItemNumberY3D var, and it works for the regular 3D model, but when drawing a 2D Plan, it has no effect, while the Product Description can be moved inFEATURE REQUEST: Dynamic Product Image Dimensions
