Dimensions not showing
I am in the process of setting up toolbox BSB and I can not get dimensions to show in front view or side views, only top view. When I dimension the side view it shows in the top view.Finished End Reveal Condition / Library Designer
Hi All, I am looking for some input. We have a condition that on a left or right finished end, our reveal = 0. My best guess is to use library designer to update all of our products with this: Current (Product Prompt > Face Options) Left reveal =IF(G!Hinge_Institutional=1,Thickness_Left_Side-G!Door_Overlay_Institutional_Hinge,IF(OR(AND(Left_Applied_End=1,G!FE_Flush_To_Door_Face=1),AND(Left_Filler_Width>0,G!Fillers_Flush_With_Faces=1)),G!Inset_Door_Drawer_Reveal,G!Default_Door_Drawer_Reveal))Missing Material Files
The Rift White Material Folder is Empty, but the Cuts parts show the correct material type. If I use the "Find selected material" option the "Buy Out Library" tab is highlighted, which is not where it should be or even listed there. When I tried to add3d analyze issue
Does anybody know why a standard 3d extruded product would analyze with extra parts that are 1/8" thick? here are my settings....it draws all the parts fine but adds extras at the end of the construction path.OEM Toolbox smart layer manager keeps popping up on screen #1
I would like it to stay on screen #2 but each time it wants me to select a part it moves. Any ideas? Im using a VPN and rdp with the settings set for using 2 of my 3 screens. Wonder if there is a setting in there that might help?Help please

Hello, is there a way to define the space between the nested materials based on material or tool? Our default border cutting tool is .375" diameter and space between nested parts is 1/2". When we cut solid surface we use a different tool which is 1/2"3D Analyzing Cone shapes
Has anybody done a cone shape successfully with the 3D analyzer? All I get is a rectangle part. I am finding out that I cannot use my secret vlx file on our OEM which would extract the cone shape into a radius part. It sucks because even AutoCAD LT supportsMachine Token fail safe
Is it possible to create a formula or global to essentially "mirror" the machining as a fail safe if the selected machining edge is either edge 1, 2, 3 or 4? Can this be accomplished with machine point? Not finding any variables to use. We would likeAdding Saw to CNC

Why does the token not show the same name i saved it in the clipboard? It got confusing enough to where I just decided to make this giant IF statement in the vectors that I couldn't expand. Luckily the cutout i needed was the same. I used Chat GPT forWaste Pullout
So I have a custom trash pullout I need to add to the waste bin selection. I have added it to the list options in F workbook but it still is not showing in my product so I can select it. Do I need to restart Toolbox or update something? Also noticed theProduct Viewer Column changes
Hi, It would be nice to be able to keep changes to the order of the columns in the Product Viewer. Currently it allows you to move or re-organize the columns. But, they revert to default when you leave the screen. Or, simply remove a column...like theSubassemblies - Project/Product/Row Level Colors on Workbook Designer
A nice feature of the Subassemblies menu are the green, yellow, and red color codes that let you know if the subassembly is unique or not. The work book designer has the same color code, BUT ONLY IF you are viewing the subassembly. It would be nice howeverFeature Request - Hardware Machine Token For Panel Edges
It would be great if there was a way to add a hardware machine token that would drill the edge of a panel. The image shows an example where adjustable levelers are being inserted into the edge of an 1 1/8" panel. This would be much easier to manage ifFactory List Options - how to update?
I added a trash pullout to the Factory list so it should show up in my hardware wizard as a dropdown but I don't even see the option in the Global. I know I saved the spreadsheet. Its probably something easy that I'm not thinking of. How do you get itgrain marker
Wasn't there a show grain marker on elevation global or am I mistaken? Also, is there a way to turn on the grain marker in draw 2D part? ThanksFeature Request / Bug Fix - Multiple Reports Open At Same Time
