How 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.Feature Request: Edit Walls with 'Edit Multiple Product Prompts'
It is difficult to adjust wall prompts once they are drawn. Making them accessible through the Edit Multiple Product Prompts command would be very helpful.Handle missing in section
Hi, I seem to have an issue from time to time where my handles will not show in my 2D sections. I have tried multiple stock handles and some copied ones. What am I missing? There seems to be drawing tokens attached and I've tried all options from thePart Orientation in grain container
Hey everyone, I'm trying to grain match a closure panel (false door on bulkhead) to the upper cabinet below. I'm getting the closure panel rotated in my grain container like in the picture below. Regardless if I have none, or force width or length inmicrovellum 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.2d Plan View drawing
Is there a way to include the depth of the door in the plan view of a cabinet? when I draw a plan view it only outlines the carcass. Also I would like to include the complete thickness of wall (hatched). Does anyone know how to accomplish this as weProduct shows up in Product List but not in Drawing
I tried to change the width of multiple cabinets in Product List and when I tried to open one of the cabinets in the drawing, I received a fatal error and MV shut down. After going through the recovery process , I tried to open a Product and MV crashesHow can i have drawer front adjusters reference drawer box, not drawer front.
I need the position of the drawer front adjusters to be a fixed location in the drawer box and variable on the drawer front. We buyout all our drawers and i can give the vendor a location for a drilled hole for the drawer front adjusters, but it willcounter top brackets
i see countertop support brackets in the hardware library but don't know how or where they can be used.To customize or not to customize
Historically we have always made minimal customizations and stayed current with software and library. Wondering what strategy everyone else has employed. What's the lifespan of a library given you stay current with the latest software?Add 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 SourcesFront to back equals formula
Does anyone know of a formula similar to the EQV formula that work in the depth of a product instead of the width?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.Text 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'sSolid Modeling Analyzer Machine and Base point
I there a way to change to default Machine and Base point for the Solid Model Analyzer? It is always 2 M2 by default and this is not the best point for us.Can 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”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. ItSolid Model Analyzer - Parts Orientation
When I use Solid Model Analyzer to create a Microvellum Product from a 3D solid using Solid Modeling Tools, some vertical parts are created like it was horizontal part. The assigned material has no grain. Also, the part is drawn vertically. How do youHas 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/dropSolid Model Analyzer - Supplemental Parts
I created a 3D solid using Solid Modeling Tools. When I add a Supplemental Part, it prompts for a Part Name and a Material. When I use Solid Model Analyzer to create the Microvellum product, this Supplemental Part is just called "Part 1". Why doesn'tSolid Modeling Tools - Restoring Product with Supplemental Parts
it appears that there is a bug when restoring a product with supplemental parts in Solid Modeling Tools (see attached for error message). it will redraw the 3D product without the supplemental parts, but the product is not listed in the Tree View window.Importing 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 are pleased to announce that the update to build 21.1.0202.641 is now available! Build Highlights This build includes improvements to help improve the speed for several workflows when working with large projects, including: Opening projects, DrawingFEATURE REQUEST - GUI Interface for color blindness
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) orProduct List Accuracy
Just noticing in the 2021 Standard build that the product list sizes are coming to full inches instead of what they actually are. The MV options are set to 1/64". Anyone else have this issue or know how to fix it? Thanks, MattPart Properties
We upgraded to Toolbox 2021 not long ago & we've noticed when using Part Properties now the option to "Save & Redraw" doesn't work properly anymore. It used to redraw your product & keep Part Properties open. Now it closes down Part Properties & redrawsMicrovellum 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 categoryPart Drawings
Hey everyone, I'm rather new to MV and I've gone trough 30 hours of basic and intermediate training and I'm not sure this was covered, but is there an easy way to generate 2D part drawings off a cabinet model? Is there a report of command to create these?Drawer Pulls not placing correctly
I don't know what I've done but now my Drawer pulls are not showing up correctly. Can someone point me in the right direction to fix this. ThanksPerfect 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,Formula Help Adding Bottom Nailer to Base Cabinets when Remove Bottom Prompt is on
We typically do not use the Bottom Nailer in our Base Cabinets. But in situations where we remove the bottom and run the back to the floor, I want this to be added. I changed the Bottom Nailer Prompt prompt to: =IF(Remove_Bottom=1,Use_Bottom_Nailer,0)Next Page
