FEATURE REQUEST: move 2D Tokens onto their own tab (not with Prompts)
I'm sure this would be a big undertaking, but it would be helpful if the 2D Drawing Tokens (and Virtual Routes, etc) were not on the "Prompts" tab. When moving prompts around, it can be cumbersome to make sure that you are not messing up any of the stuff
COMPOUND ARC

Route Array? Is it possible
Is there a way to route multiple holes in a pattern. I know I can drill multiple holes using the bore token, but can I do the same thing using the routedhole token? Some of our products have a through hole w/ known spacing, however when drilling, we get
Importing (Updated) subassembly from library?
Hi, I've edited a subassembly in a project: I've added some prompts & optional parts. I've saved it to the library, but now I'd like to use it in an existing project. But, how? I can't find a 'revert subassembly from library' button :( cheers

T Slot bit for Lockdowel
I have a question about the T slot tool file for Lockdowels. I am still working in the 50_7 component library for now and we are wanting to have the option to use lockdowels on our cabinets. I have set up the invisible fasteners in the construction method
toe kick finished end prompt
can this be added to inside the cabinets like in the toe kick options tab rather than just in the subassemblies prompts.
Troubleshooting SMA
Is there a way to identify a reason why a part is coming in as invalid? In the past I had found the Maximum Part Size was set too low, and that remedied a previous issue. Now I'm working with curved diewalls, and similar parts analyze correctly, while
Where is Post Laminate Product Prompt?
We use Dado and Screw construction for most all our cabinets. This requires us to post laminate our cabinets when needing a finished end, along with some finished bottoms, tops and backs. I am unable to find the prompt that controls this setting in the
PLINEs with multiple offsets in Parameter 5 lose their pocketing ability
If you offset a PLINE only once (without curly brackets around it), the option for making it a pocket will hold. However, if you offset it multiple times (which requires curly brackets around each instance), the PLINE loses the pocket option you tried
How to track what exactly has been engineered inside of cells
To keep track of which cells have been edited, we change the fill color of the cell in Workbook Designer (each engineer has a specific color). That way, others know that cell has been engineered and who did it. When possible, we also copy the old formula

More available colors in the color column
Currently you can color your prompts with the color column, but the available colors are limited to the first 9. I would like to be able to use the full AutoCAD color catalog (Either the Index Color 1 - 255, or the RGB equivalent Color Books 1-255,1-255,1-255)
custom prompts
We are a custom kitchen company like most, so i would like to have some custom control global prompts. That can drive visible and or non visible prompts within all of the cabinets in the library. Which would save me time in the library designer.
Refresh automatique en sortant d'un TextBox

FEATURE REQUEST: Minor Change to Edit Design Data Column Header Format
When "Set Standard Column Widths" is applied, the "Part Name" through the "2D Elv Token" (& Par) columns all fit visibly on my screen. However, the "Base Point", "Machine Point", "& "X,Y,Z Rotation" columns take up a lot of unnecessary real estate on

Is there a way to disable or hide a specific type of Machine Token?
There are a few types of Machine Tokens that we'd like to disappear from the visible list, so that our users would never attempt to apply them to a part. This is typically because they either cause issues on our machines or in cutrite nesting software.
Split oversized back
Hi all, is there an option in the global settings or product properties to split a back if it goes over the material size? What is the procedure for dealing with oversized backs? Thanks, Pete.
Is there a way to adjust the automated lead-in that MV creates on closed/internal routes to be a straight line instead of an arc?
I know for sure it is creating this arced lead-in on 4-sided cutouts, but it might also apply to PLINES, etc. Currently, CutRite is expecting a straight route as the 1st segment, and it won't accept an arc. It therefore adds a really small segment before
custom tab pull - foundation library
Foundation library - 23_0609 tab pulls needed a 200mm ~ 7.875in pull which wasn't there substituted in appropriate width into formula of larger pull of the machining token. =LOCALIZEVECTORLIST("1;-0.078;0|1;0.0787;0|-6.8828;0.0787;0|-6.8828;-0.078;0",UCN(1,0),1)
Tall Fridge Cabinet Filler
Not sure if this is the correct area to put this, seems that the Tall Fridge cabinet scribe filler subassembly ignores a situation where there is a full end panel and only makes the filler the height of the cabinet and not the full height of the unit.

LOOKUPTABLE()
Could a function be added for returning the LookupTable a cell is currently in? Similar to COLUMN() and ROW(). An example use for this function would be in the VLOOKUP formula: VLOOKUP("Text",LOOKUPTABLE(),COLUMN(),FALSE).

Add a Lead In Option to Straight Line Route Token
The straight line routing machine token is a very easy to use, compared to the extra time it takes to write a PLINE. The only downfall with this token is the inability to add a lead in to the route. This is an issue because we like to try and avoid

Display Scaling for High Resolution (4K) Laptop Monitor
I recently obtained a new laptop that has a 15.6" UHD (3840 x 2160) display. I am having trouble getting Microvellum Toolbox to display correctly with Windows 10 High-DPI scaling. The Windows 10 recommended scaling setting is 250%, which is ridiculous because everything ends up so large, there is hardly any screen real estate. I have tried setting the scaling to various settings, but the only two that seem manageable are 175% and 200%. However, at those settings, Microvellum Toolbox is a bit of a
