Extending Toe Kick with Scribe/Filler
The Toe Kicks on all Base and Tall cabinets are stuck in the early 90s. I've made a few changes here to have them actually use the filler to extend. Our shop generally has the kick captured between the sides. When we have a wall scribe or cabinet filler,Bluebeam Plugins in AutoCAD OEM
I just thought I would post this topic to see if anyone else wished Bluebeam was able to plugin to the OEM version of AutoCAD. In the past I had the pleasure of using full AutoCAD which Bluebeam was able to add plugins to. This was great for making thingsHighlight Token Column in Edit Design Data Spreadsheet View
It might not be a game-changing thing, but I spend a lot of time in the spreadsheet view and having to hunt and peck through the columns to find the token I need to edit is a pain in the neck. I took a few seconds to add a "highlight" color the token columns in workbook designer. Now, every time I have to go and tweak some little thing on a part, I'm not plowing through a thousand search results or scrolling left and right - squinting to see if I can find the bore or whatever token I was lookingLookup Table Range
I have a formula that seams to work, until I put everything together. I need help with getting to Range in a LookUpTable to function correctly. Formula: =VLOOKUP(Bracket_Type,VLOOKUP(Bracket_Style,LookUpTableBrackets,7,FALSE),4,FALSE) below is screenRegen

Hey Everyone! We have started down the road of Formula materials, but I am not 100% sold that is the proper way to go for us and I am looking to see what others are doing to manage material thickness' when using full dado construction or similar. WhatWhy Can't I Type MVPRODUCTPROMPTSMULTI Command?
Just like it says on the tin, if I type MVPRODUCTPROMPTSMULTI, I get MVPRODUCTPROMPTS, which is different and not what I typed in. This all seems to be despite the fact that MV clearly calls the prompt MVPRODUCTPROMPTSMULTI whenever you click the buttonBulge Angle Help
I have a polyline drawn, "A" and "B" in the image are dynamic, and it will affect the bulge. I am not sure how to calculate that? I understand bulge is the angle, and I can get this hard coded fairly easy but I need this to be formula driven. Just notA&M Hardware
Has there been any discussion to adding the A&M hardware Library to the Hardware options?OFFSETPOLYLINE Function
Has anyone had any issues with the offsetpolyline function in the 23.1.1027 build? It seems to be broken in every formula of our products and I'm wondering if its my syntax or a bug (the function was working fine in previous builds)Can you differentiate between boring/drilling bits on anything other than diameter?
We're wanting to use a tapered 5mm through bit as opposed to a brad point for drilling our pulls and some other through holes. Is there a way to call this out in a token? Our knee jerk approach is assigning it a different diameter like 5.5mm, which shouldConditional BORE token on a pull
We're trying to set a associative hardware token on our pulls and are running into an issue. What we're trying to do is have all pulls that are on drawers be counterbored on the back side so that the screw head is below the face so the pulls can be attachedFEATURE REQUEST - Named Variable Hub and Dependency Tree
It would speed up workflow if there were an easy window to open containing all global and local variables, identified by which type they are, where you could alter the variable name and it would update all instances across the library. If two sheets'Small Part Dowel Spacing
I've run into a little quandary. Based off of some AWI standards and various iterations of our shop's normal methods, I've had to modify the dowel hole spacing.

In Excel (and inside cells in MV), you can type Alt+Enter in between parts of a function to separate the text into multiple lines (fyi - it may cause some unwanted formatting changes). I'd love to see this function, or some other way to use "Enter" insideCan a person create a User-Defined Workbook?
Just double checking - there isn't a way to add a user-defined workbook (in addition to F,G,W,D,M,E,H,S,&N) and be able to reference it within other workbooks, correct? I tried to add one via Workbook Designer, but it didn't seem to let me rename it fromAdjustable Shelf Locations Lined Up With Bore Holes
I let my OCD run wild and took some time after hours to correctly locate the shelf supports and shelves. There were a few ways I could have done this and, if there's interest, I could go through the reasons why I wound up doing it this way. We use Continuous_Shelf_HolesFEATURE REQUEST: BENDING Token Does Not Allow For Concave Settings
I tried to put in a ticket, but it was directed to the community forum instead. If you like this idea and want to see it added/fixed, be sure to thumbs up this post so the developers can see that this is a highly requested feature. If you have a convexradius machine token
