Mortise & Tenon Settings and MiterFold
I revisited my original post and decided to break up my discussion and focus on the Mortise and Tenon. The multicolor item is what I drew in AutoCAD Solids and the "product is the single color. As you see the legs show the Mortise and the Facia showsPeanut Connector 1 Implementation
Hello. I am working on adding the Peanut Connector 1 to our library and am having a bit of trouble. One of our guys got the CAD files for the hardware and the tooling, as well as the machining tokens from MV, however we have been unable to figure outPilot hole diameter for screw construction and drawer slide holes
I feel like I am doing everything right but I am stumped on the these hole diameters. I have screw construction set up with dados and those holes are reading .2756 which isn't even a drill bit size we have or I have set it to. I want it to be 3mm actually. The other issue is the drawer slide pilot holes are showing 3mm when I have changed them to 5mm. Am I missing something here? Also to add, when I change those settings below to 3mm, neither set of pilot holes change even after I redraw them.Aventos HF Top Hole position
Hi. Im a bit confuse about the positioning of the holes for the Aventos HF Top If i look at the blum installation, the top holes is said to always be put at 116mm from the top (93mm for special installation) In MV the hole are at 116mm but the HardwareLibrary Designer
What did I do wrong? I copy and pasted a cross section instruction token from a custom product to the regular library product, now my carcass doesn't draw and the part name formulas don't work. In Library Designer they just say "(Formula)". I'm not sureRabbet at Top Nailers to Allow Cabinets to Hang
Hey there! I'm sharing a feature request for Microvellum version 24.1025 as we're gearing up for a deadline. I'm highlighting the need for more incorporated features in the library to avoid getting stuck in outdated versions for years. I'm starting toBest way to create this curved die wall?

Does anyone know exactly how the Adjust Wall Length tool determines which products it shows as being associated? From what I could reverse engineer, it seems that for Base and Tall cabinets, it looks for products who's height = height above floor. AndHow to added custom images to custom products
Is there a set of requirements that need to be met in order to set custom images to products we have produced, we have rendered in JPEG but its not finding it as if its not setup correctly maybe size or resolution just a guess.Perfect Corner on MDF Door
Hello, Wondering if there is a way to make my "perfect corner" on an MDF door more "perfect"? I've attached an image below of what my corner looks like. As you can see, the corner is slightly rounded. Is there a way to make this corner more sharp? TheLibrary Designer and Database Explorer
I created a sandbox with the latest library, when I pull up Library Designer or Database Explorer, I only see the library that is on the server. What step am I missing? My idea is to push everything to the new sandbox library products before updatingAdd machining to an array or repeated object
As per the title i think it should be possible to add machining to an array like my attached picture, i keep having to do this, and it looks like i'm going to have plot each of these boxes manually. There are probably 3 other ways to do this same job,include route in border
In the angled Sink Frame below I want to include the diagonal route in the border. This is happening on one biesse cnc & not the other. I thought it might be "include route in border" but this is checked on both machines. Anyone know where i control this?Hinge plate offset from front
Question, looking for the way to adjust the hinge plate offset from the front in the foundation. I did find formulas in the "S" workbook for every door style in column K. The formula is =IF(IS_Face_Frame,0,M2U(37,G!Accuracy)+G!Door_to_Cabinet_Gap). ICabinet Mass/Weight and how it currently works

Recently I increased the reveals of doors in a cabinet to cabinet setting from 1/16" to 1/8". The program adjusted door sizes but didn't move the hinge cup bore. My question is, what is the standard practice? Moving the hinge cup bore, adjusting doorsBase Molding Doesnt go long enough
As per the title, when using the base moulding applied through the globals and or prompts, they dont follow the size of the applied panel on the returns. I think they should, i cant think of much of a reason why youd want the base moulding to cut short,Perfect Corners on MDF Doors
