Global Machine Token edit
I'm looking for a method to edit a standard machine token and have it affect all parts that utilize it. The token in question is "ROUTE5[Finished End Scribe]" The Offset is hard-set to "L," which has caused us some grief. We want our added scribe to beCutting into other pieces
What is MV's suggestion for sorting this issue out once and for all. I do not want to increase the distance between parts as this will make things very very inefficient but i'm pulling my hair out having to fix things all the time. I'm getting to theBlum Expando T Hinge

We have different tools we use for different materials / applications. I cannot seem to get microvellum to use the proper tools for what we need. We have a tool we use for all our dados. That is set in the global variables. Our default cutting tool isEPB Questions: Death Spiral (EPB gets caught in a constant refresh/redraw loop)
Has anyone had there EPB session go into a repeated redraw/refresh loop? won't let you get out of it. I want to see if anyone knows a good way to stop it from this loop or if my force quitting and hoping that i saved is the only way to go.Unified Work order on Server slow
My work orders process to the server promptly. However, if I reprocess a nest or open the label program, I get a length delay. 1 to 2 minutes. These workorders are smaller containg usually 1 room. Any Ideas what could cause this??End of run condition/rule
Does MV have a method for tracking if a cabinet is at the end of a run? I would want to change our panel reveal on the outer side of a cabinet Ex: - Standard reveal applied to all cabinets - If end of run cabinet > the outside (left or right) would haveExtruded Bench
I understand it is still in a development stage. However, wondering if anyone has begun using it? and if so, have you experienced the same as shown with the misplacement of the "Angled Rib Curved"? UPDATE: My mistake on the part call-out. The parts inBase Cabinets - Top Cutout with Full Top
We have been looking at switching over to the Foundation library from the Component Library. One thing I seem to be missing is the ability to add cutouts to the top of base cabinets when using a full top. This is our preferred assembly method. I haveInstitutional Hinges for 3/4 panels and doors
Hello Team, I think it would be very beneficial for many shops to have institutional hinges on the library that works correctly for 3/4" thick cabinet panels as well as 3/4" thick doors. the two institutional hinges currently available are: Rockford 376Blind Corner Drilling Issue with Corner Filler
I've come across an issue with the blind corner cabinet. When set to a *Right Blind Corner with a blind facia and corner filler added, the machining only panel machine token for screws is adding edge drilling to the corner filler. (*Issue does not occurneed help with some dowels
i keep getting an extra dowl when i try to dowel a drawer front to a drawer box side, how do i get the machining to only look ate the height of the box side and not the drawer frontFEATURE REQUEST: Edit Design Data @ Product list

Anyone Running on AutoCAD 2026 Yet ... and If so how? Also is AutoCAD 2026 11x faster as they are claiming?? We just are starting to replace and update PC and moving to Windows 11 and hopefully AutoCAD 2026 Fresh installs and nothing previously loadedForcing 6th Face operations even when theres a through bore
We have modified all of our machining so we never need 6th face operations. The only time we will need it is when there is line bore on both sides with different patterns. However, on every nest, there are 6th face ops. We use a T+G (or lock dado constructionComponent Cabinet Library vs Foundation Library Positives and Negatives
Looking for some feedback on the positives and negatives when changing from the component cabinet library to the foundation library. One of my main concerns is that in the foundation library the carcass parts are no longer in a subassembly and are justRunning out of material
New and still learning Toolbox. I am making solid modeled die walls, using sheet material that I copied to project level and modified. When I process the work order, Toolbox is telling me that it couldn't process those parts because they are out of stockShelf hole setback?

Anyone know how to get rid of this? Just started popping up and when I hit OK. It locks up MV.FEATURE REQUEST: Add a Fields for ERP Project # and Work Order # to the MicrovellumWorkOrder.sdf for Integration with Material Handling Systems
Currently Microvellum creates a compact database containing all the Work Order information when you create a Microvellum Work Order named "MicrovellumWorkOrder.sdf" in each Work Order folder. During this process, I would like the ability to add an ERPCut Parts - Par 1 Par 2 Par 3
How would I use these "Par 1, 2, 3"? I can't find any articles over it. We have a custom made library and I notice the foundation library uses these functions for like grain direction blocks, drawers, etc. I just can't get it to pull in our own blocksFeature Request: Adding Parts that were Non Optimized to nest in Composite
It would be awesome to have a list of parts that are not Optimized or that MV can't figure out how to put on a sheet. So we can add these manually. We have the option to add sheets which is awesome and we can add new parts but not existing parts thatAdding Cut Parts to their own individual nested Blank
I am quite new to the more custom side of Microvellum, mostly just using standard library products and using the modifications that my company has set up, so apologies if the title isnt clear, or even leading to the correct topic. My question for youCombine Face 5 and Face 6 Machining
Hello, We would like to eliminate the need to flip parts/sheets by combining face 5 and face 6 machining when a thru cut exists. Is this possible? For example, a thick back with mounting screw thru holes (face 5) and a manually placed wire channel (faceFactory 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 theADA Sink Angled Frame - "Applied Panels"
Has anyone made a case ticket to get the "Applied Ends" option fixed in the ADA Sink Angled Frame product? In the work book there are prompts available, except they are currently hidden (6), but still when visible and "checked", there's a bug.How I can save a part that I create as a subassembly?
Will the Solid Modeling module help me?
We have started to produce products with curved tops and fronts (see pic). I have been utilizing the Bend token to get the front panel and the Draw Part In 2D command to do the tops. However, I can't get the necessary associated machining to work on thoseTool File Tool Tool List Improvement Feature Request
We need some organizational tools in the Tool File Tool List to help organize and arrange the tools in a meaningful way to allow the user to quickly find the required tool. It is currently EXTREMELY difficult to train a new Engineer how to find and differentiateSHELF Machining Token
Can someone explain how Parameter 7 of the SHELF token is meant to work? The following is a snippet from the Knowledge Base post on the topic https://community.microvellum.com/portal/en/kb/articles/machine-tokens#SHELF Parameter 7 – Shelf Hole Spacingpocket routes
hi, just curious how, or if i can do this. when selecting a pocket route for a small hole on 25mm material, the tool plunges full depth before starting the pocket, can i make it so the tool path arcs as it routes. (in order to avoid plunging)BSB Trial Time
Curios if anyone hasn't switched over to BSB yet and has the same pending conversion expiration date as we do? We have been too busy to slow down production and switch over to BSB as we are all accustom to OEM. Looking back through it looked like we hadQuestion: Solid Model Analyzing Non Planar Surfaces
What is everyone's preferred method to model and get non planar surfaces to SMA so that you can cut the product on the CNC. I currently have a desk job that has some curves around curves that are Solid Surface. I want to be able to output the parts toCustom Door Style
I’m hoping someone can give me some advice on setting up a custom door style.

I would like for the optimizer to adjust the spacing between parts based on the machining or border tool defined for the material. I think that this could be accomplished with an additional setting in the Material Code for adding a specific bit for theFEATURE REQUEST - SMA to have Product Name Prompt
It would great if after running SMA on a product there was a prompt already setup to name that product. This would save time of adding your own or opening up Overdrive Pro renaming the new product then exiting.FEATURE REQUEST - Clean Out Corners of Notch
It would be great if the machine tokens "3 Sided Notch" and "Square Corner Notch" had options to clean out the corners. This can be done with a Polyline but these machine tokens are far quicker to add than setting up a parametric polyline.FEATURE REQUEST: Globally Controlled Subassemblies
Would it be possible to have subassembly selection controlled thru the globals, the same way "2D Instructions" is controlled?Beaded Face Frame
Hello, When I have a beaded face frame project, I need to move back 1/8" the hardware of doors and drawers (hinges and slides) so the face of the door/drawer front sits 1/8" back from the face of the face frame. The way I'm doing it now, I cheat the materialNext Page
