Feature Request - Ability to edit the part quantity that is processed in a workorder batch
It would be helpful at times to be able to edit the part quantity within the workorder itself when processing a batch of parts. This would be applicable when you have multiple products under the same product number where the parts are grouped together

Feature Request Add minimum width and length to nesting scrap
As per the title there really should be a minimum width and length for scrap options in the settings. Having scrap pieces that are 2440mm long by 50mm are no good to me. But i dont mind some rectangles, pieces for our machine need to be minimum 950mm
FEATURE REQUEST: hardware List
https://community.microvellum.com/portal/en/community/topic/hardware-list-preview Much like you can use Parts List Review (MVREVIEWPARTSLIST) to see parts and materials assigned to products, I would like to view a list of hardware assigned to products
Feature Request: Product List / Overdrive: Jump to Current Room
I wish the Product List would automatically start with or jump to the 'current room' selected in the project tree. I think, for large jobs at least, this would at least help Product List / Overdrive load faster as it wouldn't need to load the entire list
Division Doweling in CCL vs FL
Not sure if anyone has had this issue ... or know they even have the issue. Drilling for DIVISION dowels in CCL was from the LEFT side (~3/8") for drillings and now in FL its from the RIGHT side. Thus drilling and doweling INCORRECTLY at the machine/shop
Stay Down Nesting - Not cutting corner on part

Processing Center Has Slowed By A Lot
I hate make a post like this, but this problem is too bad for us to let go of. I have loved Microvellum and what it has accomplished. But this problem is costing us lots of time in the office. Is anybody else running into issues with the processing center
incorrect perfect grain nesting
Build: 25.2.317.641 Library: Foundation 26.0112 With the new software build and the updated nesting algorithm, we are seeing errors on perfect grain nesting between multiple products. Specifically, we use separate header assemblies above upper cabinets

Feature request: Scrap optimisation
In the new optimiser the "smallest X" and "smallest Y" feature disappeared. The byproduct of this old feature was to get a usable part on the less optimised sheet (usually the last sheet of a given material). It would be great to have the option to maximize
Biesse Rover Edge
Best method of automating connection from MV to the Biesse Rover Edge (pod machine we use for edging curved profiles). Does anybody have this setup? We do very manual process - no part labels or anything. Operator imports dxf from a shared folder and
'F' table default drawer slide thicknesses
We were finding that drawer boxes were coming out a little too wide for the openings they're supposed to fit in. Looking into the 'F' table, we see that the E column values are for the most part set to the exact thickness of the slides, without any 'plus'

Processing Rules Not Applying to Parts Foundation Library
We have recently switched over to the Foundation Library and noticed that certain parts when we go to process a job no longer get a Processing Station applied to them when we select all parts, and then Assign Processing Station Rules to Selected Parts.
Report Default Variables
This may apply to other reports as well, but for example the "Cost Based Estimating Report". When the report is opened there is a variable panel on the left side with Markup, Overhead, Tax, etc values as well as other checkboxes to easily modify the report.

Nest Settings - Border Method Standard Setmill Location Options
We machine a lot of MDF doors for powder coating. For our door panels, we would like to have the border rout Setmill Location on the top or bottom of the door edge, which in most cases is the narrow edge. The Setmill Location options do not offer a "Shortest

SawTeq moves sequenced parts
We are currently having a massive problem where out SawTeq B300 will "re-arrange" sequences imported from Microvellum. The Microvellum saw report will show the parts laid out exactly as intended but when imported to the saw software the sequence will
Nest Tools - Part Placement
Hello, does anybody know why when I move the part on the nest with "Nest Tools - Part Placement" to the edge of the sheet it puts it right on the edge (with no space)? I recently change my computer, on the old computer it put it 1/4" away from the edge
G-Code Footer
I would like to send my router to a specific coordinate (like X0.00 Y3100) after a board cut. Does anybody know where I can change the footer during processing of my workorder? I'm using the Microvellum Nesting Optimizer. Current footer: G00 Z28.200 G00
Nesting Optimization Report with Edgebanding
It would be really beneficial for us to have edge banding on the optimization report. We don't use labels to identify our parts coming off our CNC. We write the cabinet number and draw a line on the edge that needs to be edged. Here's a screenshot of
Feature Request - Double Pass and Tabs
It would be great if we could use "Double Pass All Parts" AND have "Tabs" in the same Nesting sheets. At the moment it's either one or the other, but not both.
Tabs for cutouts
Hello Not sure if this problem (at least for me) was brought up before; Can Microvellum add tabs to routes and not only to border routes? My small cutoffs getting loose and messing up production
Delete a sheet in COMPOSITE but still comes up in REPORT??
Ok in Foundation (wasn't an issue in COMPONENT or their REPORTs) - You delete a SHEET but in the NESTING OP report it still EXISTs - But with NO data for items because the items are delete. And it ALSO has a blank dummy page in PART LABELS too. Deleted
FEATURE REQUEST - Tool information needs to be visible on reports
We have the border tool displaying on our nest reports using the Material Code from the PlacedSheets table. We would like to display more information (like the description "3/8" RH Comp" as an example) about that tool if possible, but I can't figure out
pull hole diameter issue
Right now, in the hardware tokens, the drill diameter for pulls is hard-coded to '5'. There is a global variable for that setting as well: "Handle Hole Diameter". This value is also set to '5', but of course there's no link there if the pulls' tokens
Reports needs openings for blind corners
As per the title the reports are missing the opening sizes for the blind corners, i have to measure and add them in manually as per the screenshot. Thanks Youll also notice the middle stile is reporting wrong width but that is less important.
How do I export-oversize a part?
I would like our countertop backsplashes to be automatically oversized when exporting for production while maintaining the models and drawings at final dimensions. I presume this function is somewhere in the Part Properties or a Workbook but I cannot
Hinge routing operation is also happening to the countertop dogbone routing

Label IDs
We are currently experiencing an issue with the IPP in BSB generating duplicate part ID numbers in column 13 of the .pnx file and column 12 of the .csv file. For example: Sheet 1 contains part numbers 1, 2, 3, etc. Sheet 2 again starts with part numbers
Hide Banding on Part Label
Hi, We use an edgebanding called "Oversize" to create our scribes on parts. It would effectively increase a part size by 10mm without affecting anything visually in our drawing. This is probably not unfamiliar for a lot of you? On our part label, the
