Part Label & Barcodes
Hi, I'm using a default part label report, it appears to have two barcodes but they are not printing. Any idea why or do I need to select something to enable Bar Codes? Thanks, -JamesFlat Shot Dim Scales/Sizes
Hi, Was there a way to change the size of the dimensions in your flat shots on reports for Plan or Elevation views? I could have sworn I seen something a while back that changed it from one size to another. We're wondering if for when a cabinet is reallyProject List taking too long to load - Expanded Categories
Our project list is taking too long to load and we have track it down to large overheads associated with Toolbox expanding every category in our list. If this expansion was not occurring I feel the process of opening the project list would be about 5-10 second faster everytime. Is there anyway to turn off the auto-expand for the categories in the project list view? If someone knows a bit about this one would be great to discuss.

Hi Community, I was wondering if anyone know about how to assign the pilaster machining on the gables for the adjustable shelves in Toolbox ?Please let me know if anyone knowsShut Down

A feature has been added into Microvellum Toolbox in a recent build, to allow for the inclusion of tabs in different types of border methods. The MCOR (Machine Cannot Offset Routing) setting in the nesting Toolfile previously restricted users to Center/CommonKeku Push-In-Fitting
The library I am currently running only has the Hafele 262.5130. The Web site is temporarily down for the 3D of their 262.50.358 and 262.50.359. Might someone have the 3D that they can provide me. Thanks in AdvanceModel Space Orientation Changing Randomly
Has anyone experienced the orientation of the Model Space changing randomly? That is, when working in the Top view, the view would change all of a sudden to a random view. And the view would be rotated so that just going back to the Top view did not work.New Toolbox Release Available Today: Build 23.1.0706.641

I suppose I should ask first. Is there a option to run MV with a higher resolution then 1920x1080? What is Microvellum waiting for? It's high time for MV to make the adjustment.Blum draw bottom drilling
I'm hoping to get some assistance with a question. As far as I can tell I've set the draw bottom drilling to utilize a 3mm drill bit at a depth of 12mm for both the project and library levels. However, when I use a Blum draw, it defaults to a 5mm holeCopy Verticals

It would be super handy to add a "Notes" line when creating a work order so that when we go back and look later on at the same job with say _2 or _3 etc we know what they are for. For instance, say i process an order with 12345_1 and 12345_2, i have noEPB/SMT/SMA and Associative Machining
Is there a procedure, in place, for adding additional machining to a “Vertical” for attaching a “In-Wall Support Bracket”. The only way, I know in accomplishing this, would be to draw a replacement profile and change out the studs to be used for the In-WallConventional vs. Climb Cutting and how to specify one router
I am having chipping on laminated surfaces when routing and machining doors on our CNC. To reduce the chipping we have learned that the doors needs to be cut in a conventional (Counter-Clockwise) direction. We do however want our primary perimeter routerImperial and Metric Toolbox Configurations
