SETTING UP A DRILL IN THE TOOLFILE
hopefully someone can help. i need to set up a drill in a router collet so it can straight plunge for random holes. the drill head contains the max bit sizes and this particular bit is not recommended for that head. so my question is ... how to get theShaker Door Perfect Corner
There will be a simple solution to this, but I can't seem to find it! The Perfect Corner routes on pocketed shaker doors are fine when viewed in 2D, but when nested, the Z value of the route changes to the depth of the main polyline (no ramped corners).Cabinet numbers gone crazy
I've only recently upgraded to foundation library so I'm not sure if this is just normal, but I'm unsure of how to fix/what's going on. See Below: Is it meant to look like this? And then when it's put into paper space it grabs the right scale cabinetREGEDIT FORMAT
I notice a difference within "REGEDIT", MV Structure. Are we now able to export and import? Or has it always been the case an I just never noticed it!Tool Path Tracking
Something I have been missing for years is a report that has the totals the tools have cut. I had a software package years ago that would print out a report on how many inches each tool was actually in the cut, and how many inches of index moves it hadSMA Default layers
How do I edit the default layers that come into the SLM when told yes?Changing the border route?
in the draw part in 2d section , how do I change the border route and routing to match a new size. This is without using the corner notch option. I can get my panel to cut but the routing path but the CNC is still following the original part size.Flipped 2d edit part
Hi all, has anyone noticed when updating from the 2d edit part, parts are flipped when redrawn in model space or have mistakenly changed a setting?Foundation Face Frame Subassembly Updates?
Does anyone know if the foundation library has updated the face frame openings are able to use the vertical and horizontal opening subassemblies yet? I know we can add them to the inside but not to the face of the case.Association with walls
Hello All can someone please let me know if you can Associate wall heights with cabinets for example i have a wall 2400mm high with a 20mm shadowline so my cabinet from FFL to top of cabinet = Wall height -20mm. when we do site measure the wall heightWhy is my room drawing opening in the factory database folder instead of the Project folder?
Project is not recognizing room drawings and wants to make a new drawing, I can then redraw from database and get my items back, but the new drawing is located in the factory database folder instead of the project folder. I checked the project folder,Banded Edges

Gotten really exasperated at the library not saving a new subassembly, sometimes it works great and then other times not so much. Today is one of those not so much days.Does anyone know the proper syntax for a profile on a PLINE Token?
It's late in the day, but I can't find a reference for this anywhere. Not sure if the .dwg should be in the Router Bits or the Profiles folder in MV Data. Guessing profiles, but neither seem to work, with or without the ".dwg" on the end of the name.Toolbox - automatic update
Is there an automatic update setting for Toolbox? I'm not referring to the Library update tool, I'm referring to an easier way to update Toolbox.Lock strike plate rotation
Hello, I've added a new lock to the foundation library and my strike plates are rotated 180° on right swing doors, and drawers (not when locking to the top of a door cabinet though??). I've got my multiple blocks working for the lock body, is there aHardware Machine Tokens Greyed Out

I have noticed that when I create a new sub assembly and go into edit design data and look at the sub assembly list that there will be a lot, as if it displays every attempt to save the sub assembly. All these extras do not appear in the project whenFEATURE REQUEST - WIPEOUT
I would like to be able to have a 2D Drawing token that would draw an AutoCAD wipeout, much like the DrawHatch token, it could use a Polyline token above it. By ordering the tokens, you could ensure that the draw order would be correct.Foundation vs component libraries
