Selecting a batch for printing reports or labels does nothing
So I am able to select specific batch(s) when printing Nesting Optimization reports and/or labels, but it doesn't show just that batch. It shows every page in the work order. I've been away for a while. Is there something more to select than the batchNesting and Sawing Report NOT matching tooling output
Hi, We are having some problems with our Nesting and Sawing Optimization Reports not matching the actual tooling outputs coming from the processing station. I have attached a screenshot of the Composite.dwg file (this shows the actual milling outputEdge band position on Nested Sheet WMF
Is there a way to edit the WMF stream for Placed sheets (Placed.Sheets.WMF.Stream) in order to show the edges where edgeband is applied in the nested sheet report? Thanks in advanceAdd Shop Location to Reports (and Work Order)
I created a UDPP for Shop Location, but do not know how to add it to a report. Following the tutorial for “Reverse Child/Parent relationship” I added Project Properties under the MV “Type” Database on a renamed current report. I found the Data SourcesText placement on nested panels
I remember someone mentioning somewhere before how to add part information to the panel rather than below the pattern in a composite which wasn't going to work for us, but we are doing some things now that it will be good for. Now I've tried it and it'sCan we add the the Length & Width label back to the part image for labels?
I have screen shot of an image from a past label where the part image had the Length & Width Labeled “in line” with the part image to show the orientation of the part. This was great and key when you have parts where the Length & Width of the part is close to the same size and you are then asking an operator to guess and possibly rotate a part. How can we add this back into the image? The current “OptimizationResult.WMF” doesn’t include the dims but it does have the H-Boring. The “Parts.WMFStreamDimension”Has anyone printed labels to a secondary tray in a printer?
We use a report group to print the 4 reports all at one time. We would like to add printing our labels to this report group so they aren't forgotten. We have our label stock and our standard printer paper in two separate trays in the same printer. IsPrinting Labels for pieces made from scrap/drop material
We use Microvellum and our storage system to log scrap/drop pieces of material. Our goal is to minimize scrap by using drops for small nests and make up parts. Is there a way , from Microvellum, to print labels only for the parts assigned to the scrap/dropRouter Set Up Sheet?
We have 2 routers with a different number of spindles. Therefore we only set spindle 1, 2, and 3 with a specific tool in that spindle for both machines. Spindles 4 + the tool can change as needed on a job. Does anybody know how to write a report thatLabels on Parts
When you group 6 cabinets together in the same group to be sent to the saw/routers, the different parts of those 6 cabinets get put on the sheet stock to maximize yield. That usually ends up with the parts for one cabinet spread over several sheets.Report Groups Exporting to Excel
When exporting to excel through the standard process it exports as .xlsx but when using the Report Groups it exports as .XLS (which is the older version)Differentiating between parts and copied parts on nesting summary report
So I had a report set up that used to work perfectly (until recently) as when parts were copied in the nesting patterns, half the information in the background wasn't copied at the same time so I used to be able to easily differentiate between a real part and a copied part. Now however, it seems that copied parts have the exact same information as the part they were copied from (the way it should have been from the start). Therein lies my problem as there seems to be no way for me to seperate theNesting Sheets
Can someone please help me on this one. Ive somehow been switching it back and forth for a few months now and i cant find where. Attached is a picture...instead of showing 2 sheets with the same stuff on there, It just says Quanity 2 and our router guys keep missing it because they were used to the old way.Seperating Jobs on a report and creating a single part line item for output
We have a report that was created / modified early on in when we were in training with Microvelllum to output items that we cut “Off line” These are “stock” materials like rear cabinet nailers, toe kicks, Drawer box parts, that we can grab and cut quicker and have better optimization by hand than on a Nested or P2P machine. We now have the opportunity to output much of this to a Weinig s90 cross-cut saw which will save us time and be more effective and accurate. We already have an excel importHow can I set the default save option as Adobe PDF file type while saving the processing/work order reports?
I am saving 60-70 reports a day and would like to know if we can set up a default file type (as Adobe PDF) and file name ( as per projects) to directly save the files at a specific location on my computer.Parts Label cut and finish size error
We are just starting to use labels in the shop and I noticed that the cut size and finish size are not showing up. Any ideas why this might be happening. ThanksProduct Label Image
How can I edit the image that is produced on a product label? I can't even find where they are located. I know they are generic images that pertain to a product no matter its size or makeup so i figure there should be a folder full of them somewhere. Does anybody know where they are located?Labels for architectural panels
When you have a room labeled "lobby wall panels", Microvellum will print all of the labels for those panels with "lobby wall panels" at the top. But for installation of those panels, you have to have each panel with its own row and column number on it, so that you know exactly where it goes on the wall. Is there a way to make that happen in Microvellum? Or do you just need to print your architectural panel numbers on a different set of labels?Multiple labels to match part count
Does anyone know how to make the single part report print more then one label per part if the part court is greater then one? Thanks for any pointers!Face Frame Report adding Blank Page For Frameless Cabinets
In my Face Frame reports, I have been getting a single blank page for every Frameless cabinet processed. Wondered if anyone knows a way to prevent this from happening. Thanks, Joshlabel order for nesting
What defines the order of the labels for the MV nesting optimization? For example, our labels sometimes come out of order, meaning one label from one pattern will be mixed up with labels for another pattern. The information on the labels is correct but we have to manually sort through the roll of labels to find idividual ones that aren't in the same group as others from that same sheet.Print text and dimensions added to composite (nested) drawings on Nested Optimization Report
We find it necessary to add additional text to the composite drawings for operators and fabricators for misc parts; wall paneling, diewall ribs, plates, etc. Currently the Report will not show any of the newly added information and each view has to be plotted. It would be a huge time saver if there was a layer that we could add the required information to and print on the Nested Optimization Report!Cut Part width and length different in label than in Nesting Optimization Report
We have an edgebander with premil, and we are trying to get setup with as much precision as possible so the cut size incorporates the banding thickness and the premill amount. While doing that, I used decimal units to get as much precision as possible. I notice the reported cut size on the label doesn't match the reported cut size on the Nesting Optimization report. I tried to go into report designer and figure out why there is such a difference, but that's pretty advanced for me and I was unableStimulsoft Report Code
In the old version of stimulsoft reports supplied you could click on the code tab and edit code of the report manually. In the new version, I cannot find where to do this anywhere. Any direction would be appreciated. Thanks
