Custom Subassembly takes multiple attempts to update any prompts
Hi, Ive recently been working on a custom subassembly between projects, just a simple modified fixed shelf basically. For some reason all of a sudden now when i want to change any prompt in the subassembly, the first attempt will be completely undone,FEATURE REQUEST: Globally Controlled Subassemblies
Would it be possible to have subassembly selection controlled thru the globals, the same way "2D Instructions" is controlled?Saving custom subassemblies
I've recently created a custom subassembly and want to save it to the library's subassembly list so i can insert it in cabinets as needed. When i save the sub assembly as new where is this actually saved? I cant find it in the list of subassemblies withinTool Compensation Mode
I ran a program in our CNC and i got this error saying "CH 0 Profile radius Less Tool Radius" i have a arc that is .125" and my tool DIA at .123". I've changed the tool dia to be less and also being the exact size of the arc and i still get the same issue.Product not coming out in Product detail report
Hi All I have a product that when I process it ,the Image does not come out on the product detail report. I did it once, but can't figure it out now. I know it has something to do with defining a "prompt" in the spreadsheet. I looked through the knowledgeFEATURE REQUEST: Find Where Scrap was Used in a Nest
It would be great to be able to see where a scrap sheet was used in the Microvellum Work Orders. This would allow a user to find a scrap sheet within the work orders in case you re-edit a nest that changes a scrap sheet size. This would allow you to quicklyFEATURE REQUEST: Add Un-Used Scrap Back into Scrap Inventory
If I need to update a nest in the composite drawing that removes a scrap sheet, the un-used scrap should be added back to the scrap inventory during the update g-code process. I would suggest that the update process ask if you want to add the scrap backFEATURE REQUEST: Ask to Remove Scrap from Inventory
Currently the Microvellum Scrap Manager an option to Automatically Remove Scrap from Inventory or you need to manually remove the scrap from stock. I'm asking for another check box that would allow Microvellum to ask if I want to remove the Scrap fromFEATURE REQUEST - Update Work Order Summary - Sheet Stock Quantity after Manually Adjusting Nests Removes Sheets
When I make manual changes to the nests in the Composite Drawing, I would like the Sheet Stock Quantity on the Work Order Summary to update to adjust to match the quantity in the drawing. I have run into many times that after I adjust the nests in a CompositeSolid 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_DrawerSolid Model Analyzer / Part Orientation
I created a layout of six 2D panels in AutoCAD, and all parts have a grain direction assigned. I imported them into Microvellum, converted them into 3D parts, and then ran the Solid Model Analyzer. I was able to generate the composite drawings correctly,Adding Subassembly Inserts Using Pick Corners
Does anyone actually use the "Pick Corners" feature, and does it actually work for them? Here's the documentation on it: https://community.microvellum.com/portal/en/kb/articles/adding-subassembly-inserts-and-using-pick-corners#Adding_SubassemblyInserts_and_Using_Pick_CornersDie wall studs / vertical parts internal notching corner reliefs
I have recently started creating die walls out of Microvellum and have run into the issue wherein my method of relieving the inside corners of notches on studs is not applying. I typically always drilled a 1/2" diameter hole on the corners, however theseFeature Request - Add Snapshot of Face of Nested Material to Nesting Report
Now that Microvellum is working on applying Render Materials to Database Materials, I would like the face-up side of the material to show on the Nesting Optimization Report to help the machine operator ensure that the material is placed on the CNC withIssue: duplicate label printer
While doing an integration with another shop, a second label printer was created. Now when I try to process a nest I get an error "More than one label was found as the Current Auto Nest Part Label of the name 'Part Labels(EMF4x2RollFeed)' I am tryingBlum REVEGO Pocket System V3
Does the current Foundation Library include Blum REVEGO Pocket System V3? Somehow there's a mismatch between the Microvellum hardware and Blum E-Services. Thanks[Feature Request] Function to detect machining on a part (for auto-assigning processing stations)
It would be nice to be able to set formulas that detect if a part has machining to determine a part's processing station. Currently, being unable to detect associative or virtual machining, especially from subassemblies — let alone anything manually addedMachining Tokens: Highlight on part when selected
Similar to how a part will highlight in model space when you are cycling through them in the Part Properties, it would be extremely beneficial if machining tokens acted the same way & highlighted in model space when cycling through them.. There is literallyTrue Machining with Solid Model Analyzer
It would be nice is there was an option to show the true tool paths and parts (radius in a corner) that shows where the router bit will leave a radius instead of a 90 degree inside corner. It would just be nice to see because once and awhile I miss spotsSMA template product
I'd guess not, but is there a template product that SMA uses that we can modify to add some basic prompts, subassemblies, etc? For instance, I'd like to add a prompt to toggle "hidden parts", add a subassembly for our Flatshots, and remove the defaultFeature Request: Pointers for Materials in Smart Layers
Can we please get pointers for Smart Layers and Solid Model Analyzing? We use Formula driven Materials and it would be great to set the materials to pointers instead of hard setting the materials to each part.lock position
Justed added a lock by copying existing similar lock and modifying parameters. In the image below where do i changed the 7/8" distance. Currently the lock is 3/4" from the edges and needs to be 7/8". Thanks in advanceCursor Disappears after using Solid Model Analyzer
After I place a product using the Solid Model Analyzer, my cursor disappears. If I move my mouse around the crosshair appears extremely enlarged, but when I click, my cursor is actually somewhere else on the screen. My coworker was also having the sameVisual edgebanding in 3D Model
Hi all, recent new user here after 25 years using "other' software, can't work out how to visually display the banded edges of a component so I can quickly verify which edges need banding added. We do a lot of large commercial/hospital type projects andFace 6 Edge Trim Start Location
I am looking for a method to change where the face 6 edge trim geometry starts. Currently it sets the Y start point .125" off the sheet. Due to one of our machines limits, it is necessary to set this to Y=0. Has anyone else had to make this change & foundCreating Custom Pocket Machining - Hatch Polyline
Quoting from the knowledge base, "Hatch Polyline Allows you to create a pocket routing operation for a custom shaped polyline" I must have a curse with commands not working right unless I try ten thousand times because I am having trouble replicatingFormula Reset in Prompts
Is there a way to have a text field prompt reset back to a formula? For example if I have a formula set to X=M!Upper_Door_Thickness and visible as a text field, but allow the user to override this value when a checkbox is checked, then when the checkboxHnager Notch when there is a filler
When I have a row of upper cabinets, the hanger notch is fine. But when I add a filler in the prompts and change the filler height, the hanger notch also changes. I can fix it in the part properties, but I don’t want to have to check that every time INesting Parts with Consistent Veneer "Flame" Direction
When nesting on veneered sheet goods cabinet parts, especially sides, the mirrored components will often not have a consistent orientation. This can result in one side being "flame" up and the opposite side being "flame" down. Having a way to designate35mm Drill in Tool holder
We have always had out 35mm drill for boring hinge hole in a tool holder. Since we have been using MV I can not figure out how to tell it what tool to pick for that operation. Can someone point us in the right direction.Slide Machining For Drawer Box Member
We noticed that the default way MV handles drawer box slide machining includes only the carcass but not the drawer box machining side, for us it is no big deal to do the face 6 flip so that is what we are used to doing. We ended up modifying the woodCreating a Double Access Cabinet
Is there an existing product for double access/open thru cabinets that I might be missing? If not, what would be the best way to make one? I am currently trying to use an existing product in the library, deleting the back, and adding a door sub assembly..“T-bone” and “dog-bone” connections in Microvellum
I need to use a special milling pattern to join the parts. Is this possible in Microvellum? Is there a way to automate this process? I can't find this setting in the Specification Group.How to make Foundation Library Sinks Show in Products without checking add countertop?
