Plan and Elevation Report
Anyone create a plan and elevation report similar to what CabinetVision does? I am looking to streamline production and not having a drafter redo things on their redrawn plans and elevations could save some time. A little report with a plan, elevation
Custom Label and Size
Does anyone have any insight on how id create a label that is 17 x 54mm, its sole purpose is to stick onto the back edge of shelves that are to be lipped. Our current workflow is nest it, machine it, label it, lip it, remove the label and mark write by
Sequential Numbering & Labels from Single Product
Is there a way to use a single product and enter a range or set of numbers (0-100 or 123, 456, 789, etc.) and have an identical product processed with multiple labels for each number? Each item would be a duplicate, but having the labeling this way would
Assembly Report Images
There should be a way to select which Flatshot view is generated for the assembly and shipping reports, and/or an ability to inject your own image - per product. I know that the report editor allows you to present a few views, but they are fixed by the
Not so perfect grain
While still running Toolbox OEM we have been tinkering with the BSB optimizer, while faster it seems to have it's own issues. The cabinets in the nest below have perfect grain and process correctly with OEM but the right door is getting rotates 180 degrees
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
Material file randomly changing data
Has anyone ever experienced the material file randomly changing data? For example, we have three rooms - kitchen, bedroom, bathroom. 3 completely different spec groups for each, all with independent components and all labelled as their relevant room.
Feature Request - Group Borders w/ Machining
Maybe there is a way to have MV do this automatically. But if not, it would be very cool. Inside of the nest Composite.dwg, it would be super helpful if part borders were grouped with their machining. So when my operator needs to move stuff around on
HARDWARE - Hafele Planofit - Door Straightening / Stiffener
Anyone ever added Hafele Planofit - Door Straightening / Stiffener hardware into hardware library and machined for them??? Link: https://www.hafele.com/us/en/product/straightening-fitting-planofit/40790011/?MasterSKU=P-01499139# Currently we have a parametric
Label problems with sizing
Since trying to be more efficient and pass more information along to the team in the comments section, i now cant do that because of the fonts and sizing issues when it comes to labels, when too much wording is placed then it just shifts the whole lot
Rabbets - Clipped Corners
I have curved parts originally generated by SMA. Please explain why Microvellum clips the corner of a rabbet I added later. We will use a 1/2" dia router, so when creating the tool path, I want the path to extend at least 1/4" past the part outline. This
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
Feature Request: Small Part Spacing
We have determined that spacing out small parts enough that it is more than double the diameter of the border tool plus a 1/4" that the parts will not move. Currently we have to mostly do this by hand. I tend to use a different processing station to space
Feature Request: Make the Add Lead-out to polyline button work
This one is self-explanatory. There is a lead-out button on the Draw Part in 2D / machining ribbon that doesn't work and Microvellum asked me to make a feature request after noticing that it doesn't work.
Feature Request: 2D Tools and Partslist pallet - keep selected tool selected
Please allow the 2d Tools and Partslist tool selection to remain while the pallet stays open, and prevent it from jumping back to the top of the available tools list. I'm doing a bunch of manual routes and the selected tool is reset EVERY TIME, though
Square off or Trim nest instead of using offcuts
We would like to have a way to square off a nest without trimming fully around an offcut. I'd like to not machine 4 sides of offcuts but rather trim the full length (or width) of the sheet. this helps avoid offcuts potentially being too short for future
Feature Request: Determine part orientation / Machine point location in the smart layer prior to SMA
Our engineering team does a lot of custom products where we use SMA. We have determined with Microvellum support that the way vertical parts come in through SMA is random...I.E. the part orientation good side up switching facing back or forward, Machine
Feature Request: Rough cut offset for Small Parts
We have an issue when cutting solid surface small parts that tends to be solved if we run a perimeter cut first just slightly larger than the part size. I know in our tool file we get the option when doing a multi-pass tool that you can offset the first

Adding .XLSX file Format to Reports
It would be nice if we can get Report Groups to export reports in .XLSX format. Currently it will only go to .XLS then every time we open the report it prompts us saying the file me be corrupt or unsafe. Only open if from a trusted source. Its not a huge
Dado Construction setup and machining
Can someone shed some light on their dado construction setup and how well it works for them, we use it and i'm growing tired of the very specific setup we have for it mainly based on my previous post here: https://community.microvellum.com/portal/en/community/topic/premill-fixed-shelf-dado
Single Part G-Code for Buyout Doors and Drawer Fronts: How Are You Setting This Up?

Scrap yield is so awful compared to the last couple years...
See attached composite. Why is is placing all these parts on separate sheets? These could all fit on the 1st sheet. I have not made changes in our scrap and we have been using it for years. This is dumb and causing such a waste of time trying to figure
overlapping parts on composite, perfect grain container,wrong grain direction

Is there a way to set up parametric Multi-Pass tooling
I'm currently setting up multipass tooling for a new set of compact laminate/solid surface cutters (1 roughing, 1 finishing). The problem is we have 6 separate thicknesses of these materials in our library plus more we haven't used yet and i would rather
FEATURE REQUEST - stand alone tablet program for product assembly line
Our shop is transitioning from using moziak to using microvellum. The engineering portion of microvellum is much better. But where moizak shines is with their paperless shop application. Our company was sold on microvellum being able to do everything
Hinge Location - Door and Drawer Front Report
Hinge location currently shows up on the "Door and Drawer Front Fabrication Report". This is sometimes confusing for our shop, since it appears multiple times on single parts. I would like to have it show up on the Door and Drawer Front Report. However,
Add Dado to stile shared between 2 cabinets
When doing long wall of face framed cabinets sometime I have to build it in few sections. Design, however, does not allow double stiles. when stained, reduced stile width in not acceptable either. I think it would be nice to be able to have dado groove
New Cutting optimiser still not functional a lot of the time?
Anyone else still struggling with the new optimiser, i worry for the day the old one disappears and we cant process anything!
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
Change name reference in reports
Hey all! We have manufacturing reports that right now reference the draftsman name in Microvellum, however that variable does not work great when we have multiple drafters working in the same project. What we would prefer is for MV to reference a local
