Draw 2D Part - Wrong Scale
Hey this has been bugging me since BricsCAD launched and I keep forgetting to post a question. If I have to make custom shaped panel, door or whatever. Before BricsCAD (BBC lol) typically I would draw the shape in the project DWG -> "CopyBase" PLine ->BIG Changes Coming Soon to Your Microvellum Experience
Happy Wednesday, Microvellum Community! I wanted to take a minute to let you know about something exciting happening next week... We’re about to roll out BIG changes that will upgrade how you experience Microvellum. I can’t share the details yet, butFeature Request - 2D Elev Token WYSIWYG
I would love if there was a way to have the 2D Drawing instructions have an option to instead of just a rectangle show for example cutouts. Right now, if I have a door they I add a cutout to, that doesn't draw in the 2d elevation and I have to manuallyBreaking Composite/Laid-Up Material into Parts
Is there any way to separate a composite/laid-up material into the separate parts of the core material and the plastic laminates for each side when processing a work order? For example, 0.6875MDF.000_Wht Liner_8844-WB would need to break down into a sheetShelf hole setback?
I cant seem to get my setback from the front edge of my cabinets to 37mm no matter what i try. Any suggestions?Object reference not set to an instance of an object?

One of our jobs has requested 1/4" inserts in our drawers. Does microvellium have something built in for this? Have looked but didn't see anything that stood out to me. We are wondering whether we just need to make our own subassembly. thank you inUpdate Title Block in BSB
Has anyone have the issue when you update title blocks for your drawings for multiple blocks BSB for the same attribute (property)? I have 2 different title blocks for project name, address, city, etc. for my cover page and side title for mill work pagesPrint 1 pdf product label at a time
Is there any way to print each product label to an individual file? we use the HTML reports for our shop and I want to add a "button" on the page that is a link the the products label in pdf form so that it can be printed from a tablet in the shop. PrintingMissing sink apron
I was surprised that the 2 door sink cabinet doesn't have a sink apron. How would one add it ? I tried the "Add Top Facia" but this reduced the door height by the facia width, and the apron should be behind the doors not flush with the face of the dDimensions not showing
I am in the process of setting up toolbox BSB and I can not get dimensions to show in front view or side views, only top view. When I dimension the side view it shows in the top view.Finished End Reveal Condition / Library Designer
Hi All, I am looking for some input. We have a condition that on a left or right finished end, our reveal = 0. My best guess is to use library designer to update all of our products with this: Current (Product Prompt > Face Options) Left reveal =IF(G!Hinge_Institutional=1,Thickness_Left_Side-G!Door_Overlay_Institutional_Hinge,IF(OR(AND(Left_Applied_End=1,G!FE_Flush_To_Door_Face=1),AND(Left_Filler_Width>0,G!Fillers_Flush_With_Faces=1)),G!Inset_Door_Drawer_Reveal,G!Default_Door_Drawer_Reveal))Missing Material Files
The Rift White Material Folder is Empty, but the Cuts parts show the correct material type. If I use the "Find selected material" option the "Buy Out Library" tab is highlighted, which is not where it should be or even listed there. When I tried to addNo nc code for solid analyzer created part
HI, I drew an object with cad in a project. Extruded it to 3/4 thick. And ran it thru solid analyzer. And then drew it in 2d to look at the machining. Processed it but it didn't create an nc code. What am i missing? Object 1.04 is the part.Filter the list of Component Pullouts
Right now there are Pullouts and Pullouts behind doors. This was done since some pullouts need to be attached to the door, and some don't. When you look at the list of Pullouts for each category, they are both the same. This should not be this way.3d analyze issue
Does anybody know why a standard 3d extruded product would analyze with extra parts that are 1/8" thick? here are my settings....it draws all the parts fine but adds extras at the end of the construction path.OEM Toolbox smart layer manager keeps popping up on screen #1
I would like it to stay on screen #2 but each time it wants me to select a part it moves. Any ideas? Im using a VPN and rdp with the settings set for using 2 of my 3 screens. Wonder if there is a setting in there that might help?Feature Request: Easier Arrays, and/or smarter EQ Functions
This post was spurred on by me recently updating the die wall product (non-extruded kind), which has a lot of duplicate parts in arrays. EQ Functions have long caused me a lot of confusion, but recently I ran into something very surprising: Parts usingHelp please
I saved a subassembly to the library as a new name and to the current row, thru the edit design data, and now the whole "universal" category of my subassemblies has disappeared. I checked with the database explorer and my saved subassembly is nowhereNew Formula Driven Materials - Fire Rated Designation
I recently watched recording of the November 2025 Release Review and the recording of the Focus Group on Formula Driven Materials. And, I have an issue with the material designations that I believe was missed inadvertently. The way the lookup tables arePanel insert?
Can anyone explain to me what this panel insert does on the D workbook, It sounds like what i need to be using instead of the glass door option. I'm using the glass door option as it works, but the shop staff dont seem to the concept behind it, and i'mFEATURE REQUEST: Add a Fields for ERP Project # and Work Order # to the MicrovellumWorkOrder.sdf for Integration with Material Handling Systems
Currently Microvellum creates a compact database containing all the Work Order information when you create a Microvellum Work Order named "MicrovellumWorkOrder.sdf" in each Work Order folder. During this process, I would like the ability to add an ERPUnlimited Machining cuts
Can anyone tell me how i might make my sub assembly for reeded drawers do an unlimited amount of cuts. Its purely visual, but that could change, we spindle them right now. Its all based around the groove panel and by default that stops at 31 machiningBSB 3D CONSTRIANTS

How would I use these "Par 1, 2, 3"? I can't find any articles over it. We have a custom made library and I notice the foundation library uses these functions for like grain direction blocks, drawers, etc. I just can't get it to pull in our own blocksADA Sink Angled Frame - "Applied Panels"

For those that have engineers in multiple locations around the country / world, How are you syncing databases across all of them? If one location creates customizations to a product how do the others know about it and access it? From what I know thereDefine space between nested parts based on material/tool
Hello, is there a way to define the space between the nested materials based on material or tool? Our default border cutting tool is .375" diameter and space between nested parts is 1/2". When we cut solid surface we use a different tool which is 1/2"Feature Request: Adding Parts that were Non Optimized to nest in Composite
It would be awesome to have a list of parts that are not Optimized or that MV can't figure out how to put on a sheet. So we can add these manually. We have the option to add sheets which is awesome and we can add new parts but not existing parts that3D Analyzing Cone shapes
Has anybody done a cone shape successfully with the 3D analyzer? All I get is a rectangle part. I am finding out that I cannot use my secret vlx file on our OEM which would extract the cone shape into a radius part.

I am quite new to the more custom side of Microvellum, mostly just using standard library products and using the modifications that my company has set up, so apologies if the title isnt clear, or even leading to the correct topic. My question for youMachine Token fail safe
Is it possible to create a formula or global to essentially "mirror" the machining as a fail safe if the selected machining edge is either edge 1, 2, 3 or 4? Can this be accomplished with machine point? Not finding any variables to use. We would likeAdding Saw to CNC
Has anyone successfully added a saw to their CNC? Our tooling supplier says there is an aggregate head with a saw blade that would fit our CNC, see pic below: Trying to find as much as possible as to what's involved in achieving this: We have a BiesseCombine Face 5 and Face 6 Machining
Hello, We would like to eliminate the need to flip parts/sheets by combining face 5 and face 6 machining when a thru cut exists. Is this possible? For example, a thick back with mounting screw thru holes (face 5) and a manually placed wire channel (faceFeature Request: Add a tool to open doors and drawers
Adding a feature like this would allow you to view the clearances of doors and drawers in relation to other doors, drawers, and products within a project. For example, in corners where products are installed on two adjacent walls.Next Page
