Import Specification Group From Another Project - Doesn't bring Project Level Materials
The Import Specification Group From Another Project, doesn't bring Project Level Materials and it should be an option. What if the Spec Group your importing has Project Level Materials assigned within it and you try to Import it into another project?FEATURE REQUEST: User-Defined Functions
Please let me know if this ability already exists - I would love to be able to create my own user-defined functions that could then be used throughout MV's many workbooks. MV has GETBULGE, GETARCRADIUS, etc. that make formulas much simpler, and I'd likeFace Frame Cabinet Divisions
Hello, When I have an intermediate stile with doble partition behind on a face frame cabinet, all the machining is on the right side but when I process it all the machining is on Face 6, I am guessing because the Top Dado and Bottom Dado. Is there a wayHardware Associative Drawing Name
Just going through our custom hardware we have in our system and noticed some of my 3D models are in "Non-Associative Drawing Name" and others are in "Associative Drawing Name". What's the difference and why? I do know if my hardware name is differentCam Bottom Inside global
The Global - Cam Bottom Inside needs to be per product type. Ex. base cabinets need to be outside, but uppers need to be inside. I have to make a different spec group for this. It gets heavy when I already have 4 different color spec groups already, andHow to add grain direction to formula generated material?
Hello, can somebody please tell me if it's possible to add grain direction to a formula generated material. We are using the 5 pieces door and when I nest them sometimes it changes the direction of the grain. We want to keep the grain along the lengthDADO1[Face Frame Dado]
Hello, can somebody please help me with this token? right now, the dado starts/stops the tongue on all horizontal parts of the cabinet (front stretcher, top, bottom and fixed shelves .28125" from the sides and we need it to be 2". Above is a snapshotPocket route direction
When adding a pocket route token to a piece of hardware, is there a direction control? on the composite my routs are up cutting.Shelf Holes Third Row
Anyone know a way to add a third row of holes with the Associative Adj Shelf Holes (Type 1) Token, or have just a single row?Import Hardware (with machine tokens)
We currently use the import material feature to keep all of our material organized. This is super useful when changing or adding material as it's just an excel file and we can easily copy and paste names and values. I'm running into an issue where wecorner filler pick two walls
i'm trying to modify the foundation upper corner filler product so you can set the filler size for both left and right filler (right now its just one prompt that controls both) when i save mine back to the library under my category i lose the option toLookUpTables tab in the material (Cutparts) file??
Does any one know how to access the lookup tables tab of the material file form the UI? ThxNew Subassembly
New question, I've made a new lock subassembly and would like to overwrite the existing on all drawer boxes through out the library. How would I go about it? Ideas?Unsprung Hinges
Hi Dev team, Was hoping the Blum Unsprung concealed hinges could be added to the default library as it goes with push to open doors. Will be a lot better having them show up on hardware reports for ordering.Oversize-Amount for Bending Part (Directionality?)
Is there a way to restrict the "Bending Part Oversize-Amount" in the Solid Analyzation settings to only oversize parts around the bend? Or is there a way to flag/filter these parts for a quick manual fix post-analyzation? Perhaps splitting this into twohow to change location of product number
how do i change the location of the product number (100.09) for the toe base to go underneath the base cabinet?Locks
I have a lock prompt in the Subassembly page within the product prompts. How would I go about relocating that prompt from the Subassembly main tab to the Main prompt page when a product is first inserted? I've tried it through Edit design data and it'sPocketing tool path offset adjustment?
Does anyone know how to adjust the path offset for pocket routes? It seems to calculate the concentric path based on the diameter of the bit, but sometime this leaves an island in the middle of the pocket area. I would love to be able to use a 1/2" bitComponent Library to Foundation Library Update
Is it possible to update from my current V050.5 to the latest Foundation Library build?Making a 3 panel shaker door? Is it really not possible?
I need to make a 3 panel shaker door. I have created our own door profiles we use but it is using the D! workbook LookUpTables. I am only really seeing an option for 2 panels. Seems crazy you can't door more than that.Add ability to Copy Formula Driven Material, at minimum when in Advanced Library Setup
This would be helpful from a library development standpoint. Right now its tedious to have to create another material that is exactly the same but with minor changes, because you can't copy a formula driven material. I understand it's probably not neededFEATURE REQUEST: Allow a Single Product Prompt Image to Display for a Dropdown (ctrl type 5) Prompt
I know that if you save images with names that match the dropdown options, a different image can show up per selection, but can you have one image that displays for the question in general and not for each item in the list? I tried putting a jpg imageSingle 5 Piece Door with Multiple Panels
Just curious, does anybody know if there's an update on the Development of Single 5 Piece Doors with Multiple Panels? I know there is programming to be able to do a 5 piece door 2 panels wide x 2 panels high, however what I'm referring to would be somethingOEM Library Addition -- Man Door Products
I like the thought of having a set of products, subassemblies and reports to assist in the manufacture of man doors. This would be a great addition to OEM libraries. Some basic requirements we would like to see are: Cut listing cope and stick parts withBLUMOTIOM DRAWER BOX
has anyone made a blumotion wood drawer box (5/8 material) and saved to the blum drawer parameters for a project. i have adjusted the formulas for a single drawer and i need to save it to the project so all my drawers are built to those parameters.Hardware Scaling
Is there an easy way to make a 3d model and get it to scale properly? I was matching an existing drawing that used metric, but when I loaded the slides in, they were drawing mm's as inches. I checked Units and -dwgunits to make sure they matched. MeasuredRemoval of unused hardware
Is there an easy way to remove hardware from manufacturers that our company will never use without messing up the entire library and formulas? Our company has never used Grass or Hettich hinges, or Hettich and King drawer slides, yet these items takeProducts in Incorrect Room
I think this might be a bug, but I'm not sure and I'm wondering if anyone else has encountered this. We have 4 of these 4 Door tall cabinets that should be in the "1006 Wellness" room, but after processing a work order with them, the room location changesDie Wall Skin

What are the SQL providers that are used to access the backend data? The ones that are installed with all products. Both SQL and SQLCE. Thanks in advance.Remove Hardware Array
Can anyone help me remove this hardware array from the globals? We will be using Lamello instead. Alternatively, if possible, please help me add Lamello. Otherwise, just removing this global would be fine—I just can't find the correct way to do it.Machining issues
We are doing a dado groove for backer board and drawer bottoms. The groove does just fine on all pieces EXCEPT the drawer sides. Do you have any suggestion where to look to fix this? Thanks in advance!MV Engineer needed - Central Indiana

In the Workbook Designer under 'Edit' you can find Stored Formulas which allows you to make a formula and give it a name. How is this used? Can you make a formula to perform a common calculation you will need, and it will take different inputs based onFixed panel not working
Hi. Having updated to the latest library edition, I know see the fixed panel option to the cabinet face options. Looking back on release notes, this was implemented at 24.0823 and should have options for keku's etc. but when selected, it does nothing.Safe Z
How do we prevent this bit from traveling so close to the board? It must be a setting that we just cannot find, thanks in advance. I posted this in the FB group and got a great answer but it only worked for AFTER the bit went to 0,0 position. How do weMaster cabinet in the latest library
Hi. I'm in the process of updated our library to the latest edition and have noticed that the master cabinet's name, now is formulated and is reading back at Base 1 Door Left. After comparing it with the actual Base 1 Door Left from the latest library,What is best practice for formula hardware?
I have tried to set up formula hardware for drawer slides spacers and hinges but they do not seem to work as intended. Here are the 2 issues I am having currently: 1. We use 1" spacers for frameless overlay and 1.5" spacers for framed inset. I have theNext Page
