Have You Tried the New Microvellum Beta Yet?
It’s been a few days since we released our Microvellum beta build, 26.1.0915... the build with more than 360 fixes and improvements. Hopefully some of you have had a chance to give it a test run. This is a big build, and not really your average beta.
Autofill Room Properties with Project Property Values
Is there a way to link or use a formula or field or something to fill in our Room Properties with what we input into the Project Properties? The reason we're trying to do this is because for a lot of our jobs we are able to use the Project Properties,
Tool File import
So I am new to messing around with tool files. Is it safe to import CCL tool file into Foundation? I was able to import with the TLFX format. However they do not show up in the work order screen. I also had an older foundation cnc tool file we used for
Missing Report: Metafile Product Picture Report - Dynamic Images
I'm seeing reference to a report name "Metafile Product Picture Report - Dynamic Images" in KB documents here Can someone point me in the right direction to find this? We are currently on 26.1.422.641 and i only see this following list of reports. Do
Graining of carcass parts
When I look at my carcass parts in part properties I see that the grain for my ends and backs is called out as length. When I look at tops and bottoms it says no grain. But when I look at my parts in Ardis the tops and bottom are called out correctly
Hovr Bracket Pocket Route Machining Token
I want to update our shelf product to route out for the shop the pocket needed for the Hovr brackets. While i can setup a Draw2D instruction for a pocket route, i wanted to keep this parametric. What would be the best way to go about adding a pocketed
Dovetail Drawer
I would like to adjust the cut length of a dovetail drawer side piece; Not the overall depth of the drawer, but the side length tail to tail. I have an 18" deep drawer that should have a 17 3/4" side length. The value returned on the report is 17 25/32".
Feature Request: Pointers for Materials in Smart Layers
Can we please get pointers for Smart Layers and Solid Model Analyzing? We use Formula driven Materials and it would be great to set the materials to pointers instead of hard setting the materials to each part.
Open source CAD that isn't terrible
I've been following this project for a while and it's gotten incredibly good, it's essentially a full CAD system built in under a year and entirely done by "vibe coding" (I hate that phrase). Very impressive and it will run on basically anything. https://www.opencadstudio.com/app/
FEATURE REQUEST: Enhanced Smart Layer Manager UI
Oftentimes, setting up Smart Layers for use within a drawing/project takes longer than creating the actual 3D product. The current method is slow and monotonous. I'd love to see a Smart Layer Manager that is more interactive rather than just a display,
Microvellum Alexa
I want to be able to tell Microvellum everything I want to do with my voice and I want it to intelligently select the items on the spreadsheet, change x number on x row or simply tell it what prompt to adjust. At this point I should be able to tell it
Error Message when Changing Border Setmill Location
In my nest I usually have to move some of our smaller part into the center of the sheets, i also need to change the setmill locations on any of our smaller parts to ensure they don't move during machining. That all works fine but since we updated our
LED Strip lighting not link
Hi all My strip lighting is not linked or even not reading formular from lookup table? I'm not sure what's the issue here ? only happened when update library Is there a way to fix ? TIA
Editing Material sizes at project level
Can there be an option to adjust material sizes at the project level without having to copy the material at the library level? This would help keep the material library clean and prevent duplicate materials from building up, especially if someone forgets
Blum REVEGO – Front Protrusion
Hey all, Ran into an issue with the Blum REVEGO product. The front protrusion was calculating negative in MV (−1.21") while Blum's configurator, set up the same way, was giving me 19mm. Blum wants it between 7 and 19mm. My test was an Uno+Uno, niche install,
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: Hinge drawings in Elevation Views
Something that we have had for years in the CCL was the ability to have hinges drawn in the elevation view of cabinets just to help drafters and engineers see if there are any issues or interaction we need to adjust for. In our case we have them drawn
Revert Cell In Product Prompts to Default
Would it be possible to add an option when in Product Prompt or Subassembly Prompts where you right click on a cell and there is a "Revert to Default Value" option that puts the cell back to the default value or formula for the spec group? Maybe it's
"Product Prompts is already open on a product"
AutoCAD 2026.1.1, MV build 26.1.702.641 Upon clicking Product Prompts and then a product, I'm getting this pop-up: I assure you - there are no other Product Prompts menus open. Sure, I can click 'Do Not Show Again', but I'd rather not have multiple prompt
Parts Not Optimized Report in Foundation Library not Working
Does the "Parts Not Optimized" report in Foundation Library work properly??? It seems that it's broke??? Lists ALL the parts ... Maybe I'll try EXPORTING the report from CCL into FL???
Dovetail Drawers Machining
Anyone else run into issues with the machining output in MV for the dovetail drawers on CNC with the Vortex tool? If you have a workaround what have you done? We initially had a display issue with the 3d model and had to work through that but that is
Solid Modeling Tools Color Problem
Hi everybody. We recently switched to Brcis Cad Microvellum. When creating parts using existing solids (Custom_Product_From_Existing_Solids) my parts change color from By Layer to black. Previous Microvellum with Auto Cad would create parts with assigned
Feature Request: Ability to rotate top rails in cabinets for face frame construction.
One of the things that we see and do as a regular assembly method for Face Frame cabinets is to either use the triangular corner blocks or simply rotate the top rails to run front/back instead of left to right. In our case we do dado these rails into
Feature Request: Dado extensions through back of cabinet for face frame construction.
One of the things that we see and do as a regular assembly method for Face Frame cabinets is to run the construction dado's through the back of the cabinet. This allows use to assemble the face frame and cabinet sides but then slide in the bottom/top/shelves/divisions
Can the default color selections in “Smart Layer Manager” be setup by default to start by using the built in AutoCAD “Index Colors” instead of the “True Color” RGB colors?
When using the default AutoCAD “Index Colors” when you go to print in MonoChrome the layers and output are easily translated in the Black/white. But from our use when using the “True Color” RGB colors the colors don’t change or translate unless you create
Library Request: Space Corner Drawer Stack for Face Frame Cabinets
There is already a Space Corner Drawer Stack for frameless cabinets but when doing residential cabinets, we would want and need this same cabinet with Face Frame construction. Overall, we would like to see the Face Frame cabinet library be equal to the
Grain up
Before I dig too deep into this, shouldn't the left side end panel have a machine point of 1, and the right side end panel have a machine point of 8m not 2m to keep the grain direction going crown up?
Prompts Save Initial State
Many prompts START as formulas, but will be overwritten with either modified formula's or hard coded values as you adjust the product to what you need in a particular instance. But its not uncommon to realize you changed something that you should not
MV Undo Command
I feel like it would be extremely useful to have a MV Undo command, Maybe there are some major technical hurdles here but it seems like one of the biggest improvements to useability as a new adopter... Adding this from the comments below for better visibility.
Draw Products Favorites Tab
I feel like I am spending more time than I'd like navigating through the draw MV products tabs and drop downs to find the products I use pretty regularly, seems like it wouldn't be all that difficult to have an additional tab on the left that you can
MCP Connector For AI Agents
I wouldn't be surprised if this has already been brought up or is in the works in some way, but looking at Autodesk’s new "Claude for Creative Work" integration for Fusion 360, and a similar MCP connector approach here would be a game-changer. It would
Machining Token to a Drawing Token
Is there a way to take a current machining token and switch it to a drawing token? I have a screen shot of the Bottom Back Dado attached and I would love to be able to make it a drawing token. Switching this to a Drawing Token would allow me to more easily
perfect grain issue
Toolbox OEM 2025, CCL 50.3, why does perfect grain not work with a negative z value? As far as I know there is no way to get the hinge machining on the door to be at the right z value and also have perfect grain with the 3d looking correct and the door
Cutoff spec group names
Was this ever fixed? I believe this happened to me after I saved a product back to the library. I restarted Toolbox and now its fine.
Copy Room Also Duplicated Other Products from Another Room?
Made a copy of the Primary Bedroom 111 and somehow products from other rooms like the kitchen island 105 was also brought into the room that was unrelated. The copy was made from another bedroom, not the island. Will deleting the 105s from the bedroom

The library currently has a Master Multi Carcase Designer Cabinet FF that is horizontal. Can we get one that is Vertical? Thanks! @Latisha Dauby
Product - DRAW ONLY
Is there a way to make a product DRAW ONLY? Example, quartz countertops and splash. We don't produce them, but I'd like to be able to have them shown in the drawing just as any other product but not be included in a production nest when I window the whole
Crown molding not listenign to global
I believe there may be an error in the library for all the cabinets atleast my face frame library is like it, i only updated the other day. All of the crown molding prompts to turn on from the globals are hard set to just 0. In all categories, Tall, upper,
New Foundation Library training videos on peAk!
Now that Microvellum users have easier access to peAk, I wanted to let everyone know that we just added the initial set of Foundation Library training videos. These are not quick little high-level videos. These are in-depth, long-form, teaching videos
Feature Request - Special Prompt that reports Project_Name
There are many special prompts such as ProductNumber but in order to get very unique information into innergy we need to automate ProjectName (Current_Project) Why stop there and also link fields in Project_Properties or RoomName (Current_Room). ProjectJobNumber
