Machine Tokens and Prompts
I have created 4 new machine tokens that i need to associate to checked prompts on my countertops, how would i go about doing that?PLAM Countertop
So I'm pretty new to the MV universe and I'm starting to create new countertops for myself and the other drafters here in the shop. The basic extruded countertops are great but i wanted to know if anyone has been able to add laminate to the product? currentlyCustom Assembly Report
Is there a way to filter parts or products that have a "Comment" into a unique report? Looking to create a Custom Product Detail report for products or parts that need to be built by a more knowledgeable builder in our shop. Kind of like the Product DetailPLINE/tool relation
I have a dumb question I should know, but don't. I know on a dado, pocket, or cut out the the tool's diameter is taken into account, hence a lead on a through dado so you don't have rounded corners at the edge of your part. But if I apply a machiningSuggestion - Edit Product List Item Number for Multiple Products
When we create an exam room multiple times, such as a quantity of 20, we create 20 empty product lines within a "shipping" phase within the spreadsheet for each product within that room (20 base cabinets, 20 upper cabinets, etc). Each line is assignedWall panels - how do you do it?
I am going to be doing my first wall panel project in Microvellum shortly. Before I get too deep into into the project, I am wondering how others have set thier libraries up to handle this. The project consists of wall panels, soffits and colums. NonTapered Route from BENDING Token Not Nesting
I put a ticket in for this, but it was marked "solved" without fixing my issue, so I'm posting here... When using the tapered option on the bending token, a part draws correctly in 3D. It ALSO shows up with the correct route in the 2D Part Editor, whichLeg Levelers?
How do I change the hole for the leg leveler bases from a .3937" (10mm) hole to a .4095" (10.4mm) hole?Having issues with Virtual Routes not always working
We have a removable top panel that we use when installing recessed can lights into a cabinet. We built the panel as a subassembly that simply gets turned on and applied to the openings and has options for the number of lights. When we do this we alsoDelete custom products from library
We have added a few custom products to our library and over the last few jobs have made some improvements to them, and want to delete the old versions. How do you do that?Subassembly inserts

I am designing a tall cabinet for an art room, and it contains 23 adjustable shelves. Unfortunately, MV only allows up to 10 out of the box. How do I get it to allow me to add more? I searched the forum and came up with an old thread that was a yearTurn off part labels for a product
With our plywood plinths, we add in an assembly block product. This can have a quantity of 50 or more and uses the remainder of the plywood sheets. The assembly blocks do not require part labels. Is it possible to remove this at the product level or through"E" Column in Cut Parts
Is it possible to leave this Column Blank? Or have it used as a reference to the "Map Parts" Column? We are currently using this column to calculate which machine will be required in optimization, then using the Map Parts as a VLOOKUP to match the machineAximat 300 hinges?
We have a job coming up for '23 that is going to require use to use the Aximat 300 hinges. (344.06.800 cup / 344.06.920 arm) I am just wondering if anyone has a working setup for these hinges that they would be willing to either share or answer somebetter way to make fomular hardware part
I have one part number, it is very similar but just has different language or connection or type or length, then it will have tones of part number. But we need the part number for price and report purpose. I am thinking use fomular hardware, but i amSolid Model Analyzer - Lag
I'm not quite sure what is going on, but recently the Solid Model Analyzer has refused to work smoothly. When I go to analyze solids to make a product the program will hang for quite a long time, up to 5-10 minutes. Then it will ask for each solid material.Standard Machine Token Parameters??
Where can I find the parameters for the standard machine tokens? I currently have to change the tool number every time I use one.Extruded Hardware
I am trying to add a few pieces of extruded hardware for a display case I am making. The item width and heights will be based on the overall display case width and height. I have tried adding the items as a hardware item, but that leads me to a staticMaterials for Reception Desks, etc
So I do not use any solid modeling tools, I use the stock extruded products for my die walls etc. A large portion of the time the construction methods are the same but the materials change. While the materials are pretty easy to designate for the dieFEATURE REQUEST - Hardware "Drill From Opposite Side" on BORE Token
I do not see that the option exists to "Drill from Opposite Side" on hardware, but it would be very helpful for us if it did. Since it is on other machine tokens, is it possible to add it to the hardware ones? Since this option doesn't exist, we areAdjusting Grass drawer front connector
I would like to adjust the bore of the grass nova pro scala front connecting bracket from 12mm to 13mm to the drawer front. I used to go to "lookuptables" but the drawers seam to be no longer there. Can some one point me in the right direction on whereFace6 Machining
I have a tall cabinet with a division released to the shop. There are programs created for the face 6 machining for the shelf standards on face 6. I feel like there used to be a report that showed how to position the part and which program corresponded to which part. I cannot seem to find it. This is not "face6 first". just a single part...using a newly added tool
Hello, I am very new to microvellum, and i cant figure out how properly assign tooling where i need it. Currently im making shaker style mdf doors, and I am doing pocket routes for hinge cup holes, and i need to pocket the door with a different bit, iMachine Point Formula
Im trying to place a formula inside the machine point. =IF(OR(Bay_Position>59,Bay_Position<68),3,3M) The syntax is correct as it will return 3, but does not like 3M. Is it not possible to mirror a machine point using a formula? Foundation Library 21Multi Pass Tools
I have a question about setting up multi pass/step tools. If I'm using multiple tools, which feed and speed configurations are being used on the individual passes? The ones in the 900 tool, or the ones for the tool I'm adding to the multi tool?Adjusting Dowel Patterns for Ease of Construction
I work at a midsize cabinet factory as an engineer. All of our millwork is custom- each piece is produced for the job it was drawn for, and we do only commercial jobs. With the nature of our production process, because so many types of cabinets comeEdit Part to radius results
Hi. I am making a plywood template for a curved wall and have made a polyline of the template and applied it with Edit Part to a plywood part to make the shape and it appears correct in the model space however running it to a work order the part is aFEATURE REQUEST: Allow "Associative Drawing Name" dwgs to work for HWR Arrays
Most of the hardware I have implemented is through hardware arrays, so this option would really be beneficial for us. It would allow us to use 1 drawing for several different hardware allocations. The drawing library we maintain would be able to decreasePLINE Machine Tokens
Are machining tokens dynamic or static in nature? For example, I am designing a product with a curved end panel. Works great until I change the depth of the unit, then I lose most of my curve. See attached images. The before is correct at 24" Deep.Pullout/Inner Drawer Spacer
Hello, I am new to the world of Microvellum and cabinetry and wanted to see if anybody out there could point me in the correct direction on how to handle a change I need to make for our library in relation to pullout/Inner drawers. Currently when weNeed to chamfer an edge of a panel
This is just for drawing purposes, but i need an edge to be chamfered. I have attempted to use the CHAMFER and MITER machine tokens. MITER works, but i dont want a point. Chamfer seems to ONLY affect corners on the 5/6 faces. And i will admit to havingChanging the Job Tree terminology to use a more generic term like "Drawing" instead of "Room"
FYI - I asked this question a while back, but was informed the ability already exists (see comments)... Our casework dept drafts one elevation only inside of a drawing (there are many reasons for this, which I may or may not agree with, but won't getRear modifications

I was under the impression this function could work both directions, but I can't seem to get it to return anything other than a column's worth of data in a string.

Hi, I am running into a weird issue where i cant assign the thickess/position of my associative dowel token. I want to add dowels to a fixed shelf thats 1" thick but it will only offset 3/8" from face 5 instead of centering on the material. Is there aAdding a Lock - Need Help
I am adding a lock to the library and have hit a roadblock. I have added the lock, and the associative drawing, but cannot get the orientation correct.

Interested in knowing how people are introducing these integrated pull designs into Microvellum. The shadowline rails are great and a more affordable option but we want to take it a step further and have several options of integrated pulls as people askSMA Parts - Adding Machining
