Formula Driven Material - Formula HELP
We are working on setting up our foundation library using formula driven materials, and are running into the issue of how to come up with and name each possible material combination. We have projects where we can have 10 different laminate colors, andToolbox BSB Trial
It appears that the trial period is for the company and not for individual users in the company. What happens when the BSB trial ends and some of us have not installed BSB yet? Should everyone install and activate BSB before the end of the trial evenDrawer Report Error
Does anyone know what the correct variable is for the drawer width in the drawer report? It seems the report is using the value for the opening and not the net size of the drawer. The drawer parts however are the correct size.mm and in help

There are MV clipboards for parts, prompts, machine tokens, subassemblies, and hardware. These are great tools to help speed up work and keep things consistent - especially when you're needing to customize a product, or if you plan to update your libraryFEATURE REQUEST - Save and close product prompts interface without redrawing
I would like the option of redrawing a product (or not) after making changes to the product prompts. I know in the product list you can access the product prompts interface and make changes without the redraw each time. But this would be a great timeDowel removal at top and back only?
Can you have dowels and conformats machined in the back edges of divisions and ends, but not in the back edge of the top and bottom of the cabinet.Modify default nest colors
Is there any way to change the default colors (currently yellow for borders, green for face 5 detailing, and red for face 6 detailing) being used in the nest composite drawings?Can I control part front edge placement on a nested sheet?
My CNC operator prefers when all front edges of parts face the same way on a nested sheet. Is there a setting for that?Changing Depth Or A Route In The Nest
I am trying to figure out the easiest way of changing the depth of a routing in the CNC nests, specifically when the route has a ramp-in. I can change the depth of a route by reassigning a tool using the "2D MACHINING TOOLS" toolbox but I loose the ramp,Distance Between Lead-In/Out - Is this controlled somewhere?
We are running into a major issue with moving the setmill for part borders. The standard lead-in/lead-out has a gap of 0.25 inches between them. However, when using the Move Setmill tool in the Nesting tools that gap goes to zero. After updating/creatingFeature Request: Enhanced “Fill Wall with Products” Functionality
The current “Fill Wall with Products” method allows a user to define the quantity of a single product type, then calculates widths based on the wall length (subtracting left and right gaps). While useful, this functionality is limited when designing moreCut Parts Wizard - Are multiple tabs Possible?
Is it possible to add more tabs to the Cut Parts Wizard, similar to how the Hardware Material Wizard has multiple tabs at the top? As we are wanting to move the Interior Finishes and Misc Finishes to there own tabs instead of being under the Category.Block attributes
is there a way to have block attributes refer to the microvellum global? i'm trying to set up detail blocks that show the defaults of the job, so for example have a door reveal detail block that the reveal attributes in the block look to that global.Toolbox BSB is Now Available

Good morning, We use the ''mortise and tenon'' option to build our boxes. Unfortunately, when the 3/8 down spiral has to make the tongue on the board surface, it makes a burned mark, leaving a bad finish where the bit plunges into the part. If you canOEM 2021 Cabinet Numbering
Has anyone using OEM 2021 experienced MV not sequencially numbering cabinets when you input them? We can say add a cabinet 1.01 and the next cabinet inserted will have a number r we used early on in the project.How Can We Move Part Border Machining to First Operation?
Admittedly, tool files and posts are not my strong suit. However, I'm in need of a simple process that can be easily trained in engineering and at the CNC. We need to have a Processing Station, tool file, and post that will put the part border operationLeg Levelers and Finished Ends
Ok so we thinking about switching to using Hafele Axilo Leg Levelers in lieu of ladderbases. Question I have though ... how do you handle FINISHED ENDS?? We are going to use THESE in the FE corners / side though ... Do you know / is there is an EASY wayFeature Request - Panel Instead of Face Frame for Blind Corner Cabinet
The image probably makes this more clear than the following description. When placing a blind corner cabinet using the Face Frame library, it would be great if the hidden part of the cabinet was a wood panel instead of a face frame. I accomplished theDatabase problem
I’m experiencing a critical issue with Microvellum related to the database size. I already performed a cleanup of projects and work orders, and I’ve also used the Database Management tools under Options > Utilities, but the problem persists. The fileElevations on Angled Walls
Morning all, I was wondering if anyone knew the best way to do elevations on angled walls? I can't seem to find a clean way to do them!Turning toe kick sleeper notch off

Currently, MV Server will only generate a file in the Error path if an error is encountered when importing a project. I would like to see MV Server make use of the same Error path if an error is encountered during WOC/WOP when created via Toolbox, asFluid Designer tab in Options?
Testing out BSB and noticing a new tab in the Configuration Editor (aka "Toolbox Setup -> Options") called "Fluid Designer" and seems to want a link to a Blender installation. Any documentation or information on the purpose of this tab?Q4 Roadmap Focus Group #2
I want to make sure as many people as possible see this - it is on the website, went out via email, and is referenced in a reply in another thread but I decided it might be best to have a topic on it. Please join us if possible for the 2nd Roadmap FocusFEATURE REQUEST: Ability to Organize Project Folders
In an effort to streamline and organize the Project Folders, it would be helpful to have some folder structure options within the Microvellum Toolbox Options. For example, having the options to organize room CAD drawings and 2D Part Editor CAD drawingsWhere is the Microvellum Train Heading?
Like many long-time users, I became a raving fan of Microvellum not because it was easy, but because it was powerful. It gave us the ability to build “rocket ships” (Zach Holland at Concepts in Millwork) - not just boxes - as long as we understood theBSB and ACAD LT
I am close to getting a seat of MV, and the guy that I work with is in his 60's and only uses acad lt. I have been thinking about if it would be possible to use a lisp routine that would explode regions into polylines and then give him that file to use.Intro to Toolbox BSB – Online Training Schedule
