Cut Part Is Smaller than Model
We are having a problem where our nested part (and what gets cut at the machine) is smaller than the dimensions in Microvellum and what is shown the model. It is not on all parts but it seems to be on parts with multiple edges edgebanded. However it isn'tdrawer box
does anyone here use a 1/4" bottom dadoed in to the sides and sub-front with the back cut short (classic drawer box construction). for some reason i can't get those parameters right in the globals. does anyone have the settings?Microvellum Toolbar Resize Issue When on Right of the Screen
I like my Microvellum toolbar to be on the right of the screen. When MV starts with the toolbar located on the right, it can't be resized. You have to first swap it the left, then back to the right to get the resize to actually stick. Every time MV isAventos HKi - backside pocket cut, left side
Aventos HKi - The left side hardware pocket is pocketing on backside (red), but the cutout outline is on correct face. I'm not sure how - I've dug into the hardware tokens - there's only one vector as expected. The routes look correct in '2D Parts', but"Hinge" token parameters
Would someone please post an example how they've set up the associative token "Hinge"?Spec Group Refresh at Report Generation
Is there a way to disable the spec group refresh when generating reports after a work order has been processed?

I had a client come back and ask for routed finger pulls on doors and drawers, with 3/4" horizontal reveals. (Base_Top_Gap, Horizontal_Drawer_Gap and Horizontal_Door_Gap). I found that those settings gave me incorrect drawer front WIDTHS relative to theToe Kick Notches Left Side but not Right Side
Hello All, I've been back and forth trying to force this...but have not had any luck. I have selected the "Notch Ends To Floor and it does the left one only. As you can see from the attachments it looks like the "Machine Token" is there. Any suggestionsAnyway to do a non square polygon pockets
I'm working on a product, and I want to make pockets that look like this: The angles on the sides and the length and width of the part is controlled by prompts, so this needs to be parametric. I can make a pocket with a pline machine token, but I needAdding Subassembly Inserts Using Pick Corners

Hi guys, we are moving to the BSB asap but there are still a few project going on OEM and (of course) we've missed the downloading window (20/07) for the latest build (Build 25.1.0616.641). I've opened a ticket last Friday (18/07) on something that wasBlind Corner Overlay Hinges

I changed my assembly from dado to "Invisible Fasteners" for the master 2 bay vertical and the division has the machining running X. Should it be in the YDrawer Face Identification
Was there an update that identifies a left or right drawer face on a 2 door 2 drawer cabinet. I remember something said about it at some point, but have not seen anything in the release notes.

I am looking into "out of the box" panel connector options for Microvellum. We are Build 24.1.1030.641. OVOO looks like a nice option. Has anyone programmed for these or have a link to instructions; looks like we need to add a T-Slot tool. Any other recommendations?Solid Wood Door - Perfect Grain Issue Name Error
I am having an issue with graining with the solid wood door subassembly. This works fine with Slab doors. I am using a NON modified subassembly, this is a template level version. I am on library 26.0327 so the newest one. There is a prompt for Full_Width_DrawerEasier method of assigning 3D Hardware blocks
It would be great to have a file location browse button for assigning 3D and 2D blocks to hardware, so you could just select the block you want to assign to your hardware instead of having to type out the file location by hand.Toe Kick Notch Relief
Right now, the Toe Kick Notch Relief Left and Toe Kick Notch Relief Right do not look to see if you are adding a FE. If you are adding a FE, you would not want this extra cut. Please update the formula to look at the FEs.Feature Request: Allow different panel size for FACE5 and Face 6 programs in CutParts worksheet
Often the part program sizes between FACE5 and FACE6 are different. For example a FACE5 program might do part formatting on the raw board size (i.e. 1004x604x25mm), then the FACE6 program size (i.e. 1000x600x25mm) needs to be smaller than the FACE5 program.Factory Workbook Changes Overwritten
Anyone know why this would happen occasionally? Today I made a change to the factory workbook file to add a drawer slide. The change seemed to be good to go, but a few hours later I noticed the drawer slide had vanished. In the factory database, all theIntegrated Post Processor Biesse rover A FT

Hi all, we are working on a project with splayed doors, the top of door has a bevel instead of a handle. As a consequence we need to have rails behind each front. Is there an option for turning that on as a global? Thanks.Errors occuring when trying to run a report

It would be nice to be able to set formulas that detect if a part has machining to determine a part's processing station.
