How can you rename library materials in such a way that the new names show up in existing projects?
We tried simply renaming them and taking no additional steps. Existing job materials did not appear to update. We tried running "Change Active Library" as a refresh and then tried closing and re-opening MV. We also tried bringing in the material fileAdding a New Lock for Door, Doors and Drawers

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.

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
