Feature Request: Dark Mode
Working with Microvellum 5-10 hours a day I think it would be nice to have a dark mode available. Personally I run everything in dark mode since it is easier on my eyes and would like an option to do in Microvellum, especially in the processing stationThe Pipeline (Trailer #2)

Hi All I am just wondering if there is any kind of login history or a way to see who has accessed certain projects at certain times. What could stop another co worker from entering a project that belonged to someone else and messing with it?work orders
is it possible to change quantities in a work order? sometimes we want to run a cabinet for 6 pieces and the perhaps run only 4. the cabinet has been processed for 6 but we would like to run a batch for only 4 of the same cabinet and vice versa. can thisCan the Saw Report show a minimum panels size
Has anyone tried to set up a Sawing Optimization Report that could show what the minimum panel size required would be? Something that could incorporate the Leading & Trailing numbers in a material. Or, can this even be accomplished? Or, even in the LabelsWhat is the scale for adding 3d hardware in MV
I added some new drawer slides with updated product numbers, etc. and everything went great. I added the DWG into the graphics folder but did not scale the item so the new drawer slides came in HUGE compared to the cabinet. I scaled it down and now theyEstimate machining on nested machine
Hello All! Those of you that have years of experience in CNC should know this one easy: About how many minutes would the attached piece take to get a nested CNC machine to cut through and poke all the holes for hinges and such? Thanks in advance,Text Help
I know this is probably a rookie question but how do I change the size of the text in the drawings page? Everything in model space is set to annotative but I can't change the text to annotative for some reason. Normally this is already set but somehowDIE WALLS
how do you get a library die wall product so that the return is not mitered? i don't see an option in the prompts. the standard die wall inserted to follow a polyline always miters the return and i want to change that to a butt joint.point style nodes
does anyone know how to change the point style in Toolbox OEM? DDPTYPE doesn't work.Feature Request: Adjust Wall - Include Product
Currently if you uncheck this box, the product will not be moved, or resized. But it WILL be redrawn. This can in some cases require an elevation to be completely deleted and have to be redrawn from scratch. Either because MV has for some reason decidedHow do you remove some line bore holes?
How do you remove some line bore holes that are not needed from a part. They are associative and won't delete whe editing in 2d part editing. i only need to remove the upper most holes.microvellum solidwork
I want transfert microvellum 3d drawing to solidwork. Thank you Francois BSave prompt for Drawing1
I have closed Drawing1 a couple thousand times now and I hate having to say No each time to saving it. It is seen as changed each time because of system variables that are applied after opening Toolbox, as I understand it. Does anyone know what I canHow to copy existing hardware
I am trying to figure out how to essentially copy all the Blum hinges and rename them to Richelieu. We use Richelieu as our standard hinge, but have used Blum when requested and I would like to be able to differentiate between the two for report purposes.counter top brackets
i see countertop support brackets in the hardware library but don't know how or where they can be used.FEATURE REQUEST: Purge Part Drawings
It would be useful if there was a tool we could use to purge part drawings that are created when you draw a part in 2D. If you are doing a bunch of modifications to parts, these can accumulate over time and take up drive/server space.Hatch scale for hatched returns
Is there a way to change the default scale of 50 (left image) for hatched returns for something more dense? I'd like to have the hatched returns with a hatch scale of 16 (right image) without having to manually change it every time I insert a hatchedBatched Nesting
I would like to be able to nest an entire job, say 250 cabinets, and set the number of cabinets in a batch to 10-20 boxes. This way if I had another job that needed to be rushed I could finish the batch of 10 cabinets and fit in another job, it also wouldCreating New Mach Instructions and GCode from Drawing Problem
We have been using scrap for small or make up part nests. Sometimes we have to manually configure the nested parts in the composite drawing to get grain matching or just fit the needed parts on a specific piece of scrap. Since we have an auto labelerHow can I make a hardware page reflecting the hardware choices that are made in MV
We use a hardware page like the image below. I would like to know if anyone knows of a way that I can attach an image to a hardware item, as well as a title and description. Then the hardware page could be a block with attributes reflecting the hardware that is chosen in the spec group. The title could be the hardware name. Is this possible? Who can give me some info on how to do this if it can be done?Move current project spec groups to the top of the list
Moving current project spec groups to the top of the list or have the ability to hide and unhide unused spec groups. i know they are in alphabetical order but when having quite a few spec groups, having this feature would eliminate the possibility ofTemporarily Turn Off Labeling
Temporarily Turn Off Labeling: At times we run the same product with high volumes. For these situations it would be better if we can turn off labeling on the CNC. It's not necessary to have the labels on there when its assembled in large quantities. ItImporting Multiple Sheet Sizes to Material List with Spreadsheet
So, I understand the theory behind importing multiple materials at once using the spreadsheet method - all good. What I want to know is how I can get different sheet sizes to associate with the same material using this method. I have all of the materialsNew release available today: Build 21.1.0202.641

We don't know if this has been requested before, but we have an employee that has difficulty seeing the red/yellow/green subassembly folder colors due to color blindness. Would it be possible to update these icons to a colored folder with a (1,2,3) orMicrovellum Courses
I Have applied for MV online course twice now yet i have not yet heard anything back from anyone from MV. Does anyone know the best way to get MV training done?Materials showing up from different jobs?
Did it ever happened to any of you to have materials showing up in jour job from jobs created by other colleagues? The materials show up with the black dot at the top under the main Sheet Stock categoryPerfect Grain Doors and Drawer Fronts
How are you handling perfect graining for loose grain pattern materials, especially the non-repeating patterns of real wood? The issue we're having is with the door and drawer front, or door and false front combinations found in a 2 Door 1 Drawer Base,Tabbing
I would like to suggest an upgrade to the current tabbing settings to allow for multiple passers and multiple tools.Resizing item # BOX?
I would like to reset the size of the box for a project that has about 7 digits . The box around the numbers is a little small. I have searched but did not see what I was looking for .Has anybody made a report to show face 6 tool pathing?
Our operators are constantly coming into the office with questions because there is nothing indicating what face 6 is going to cut. I'm looking for a report that looks just like the nest optimization report, showing all the toolpaths but for the face 6 program(s) and not the face 5 programs. I have zero experience making reports so I'm reaching out to the community to see if anyone has made this, and, if so, can I possibly get it from you? Thanks in advance.FEATURE REQUEST: Revert Subassembly in Prompts UI
This would be a helpful addition and would eliminate having to open another UI to revert a subassembly. James Drury Technology Advocate MICROVELLUM SOFTWARE LinkedIn VimeoDealing with labels in a spray finish enviornment.
Just wondering as a tech for Microvellum, how users in a spray finish shop where both sides of a part have multiple finish steps, manage labeling parts efficiently. Do you use custom adhesives or skip the process of labeling these parts? Many improvementsWhat setting for single click editing in Microvellum?
I have spent some time looking into this and cannot find the setting? I have my Auto CAD settings as single click but when I go to change commands in Microvellum control panel it is a double click.Has anyone had issues with 'Fury' tongues in particleboard
Been having an issue with tongues coming off the nesting machine being quite rough and needing sanding before assembly. Using a 3flute 8mm spiral cutter . Has anyone had this issue or can help with advice that would be awesome :)Adding Prompts
I know this has been covered, but, I forgot. I need to add some prompts and not just to an existing cabinet but say to all the base carcass sub assemblies. Is there an easy method? I know, I know, but I forgot :)Cabinets 1/6" wider than engineered
Hello, My cabinets are being produced an average of 1/16" wider than should be. Working in melamine so the thickness of the boards are locked in. The gap tolerances seem to be good. Also when making drawer banks the drawers are too small for the enlargedSwitching from 1/4" to 1/2" backs ?
