Does anyone know what this error is or how I can fix it? I am getting it when recreating gcode after editing the composite drawing.Pilot Hole Drilling on Diagonal Corner Cabinet
I have a problem with the pilot hole drilling on my Diagonal Corner Cabinets. The problem is on the Upper and Base Diagonal Corner Cabinets. The formula for the pilot holes is not moving the holes back from the corner of the top and bottom to contactCountertop Tight Joints / Dogbone Joints
Hi, I'm curious on how I could end up doing "dogbone" joints on our countertops with the CNC or Point to Point machines? I'm sure someone has had this issue and has a solution. I've tried a couple of methods and just want to see how other shops are dealingHow do I flip an Aluminum Handle to the bottom of the drawer front?
I've tried everything, also searched topics and couldn't find anyone that had previously asked this question. Thanks for any help, CTCopying Prompts From one Cabinet to Another
How do you get a Prompts Tab to copy from one cabinet to another? In the Screen Shot Below, we set up a "Signature Accessories" Prompt Tab for our Wall Cabinets. We are then saving these wall cabinets back to the Library building our own company specificLeft and Right "nailers" are different lengths in my corner cabinet?
Hello Microvellum Community, In a previous post I mentioned building a library of corner cabinets for my company. I am not sure what happened but my nailers are coming in and being drawn at 2 different lengths. A difference of 0.22". Anyone else run intoRouter lead ins
I do realize that we are given the option to add ramped leadins to toolpaths but would it not be nice if we had further options? The reason for this request is that when you have a project with a large number of irregular shape cutouts It is not onlyLock hole routing [Toilet Partitioning]
HI All. I have hardship with Partition door lock drilling. I just tried to use the default setting, but it looks doesn't right. it is not i have attached 3D with Bsuit. ad my nesting file image. How i can fix this issue and how i can initially changeAccessing product prompts from sections
is there a setting to open the product prompts from sections? one of my ex-coworkers had the ability to do so but no one else does and now no one know how to do so.FEATURE REQUEST: Alignment of columns (especially machine tokens) inside Edit Design Data subassemblies
When in a sub in Edit Design Data, if you've stretched/extended some columns for better visibility (particularly on Machine Tokens), if you go into Workbook Designer to make some changes and then exit it, the columns become highly misaligned. The buttonProduct Group Image
Is anyone using the Product Groups and setting an image? I've created one and the image I've attached is being stretched and disproportionate. It won't center it like all other images for products. I've sized it similar to other graphics with no chaSeparate item numbering for different products?
Does anyone know if it's possible to have products numbered differently for specific products? For example, we'd like our countertops to be numbered differently than our normal cabinets. Where a cabinet is numbered 1.01, 1.02, 1.03, ect, we'd like ourRIP TOOLBOX
Hello Shane, It seems this is the new way to get attention and get tickets answered on this new "improved" system. The gcode microvellum produces does not match what is drawn in the composite drawing. BIG PROBLEM. CHECK TICKETS.Show specs when we use the machining sequence
I don't know if it has already been done or it's already something we can do but I would like to have my specs (like depth cut, speed, tool in use, etc) when I use the machining sequence, sometimes we only know the program wasn't good once we run it inRepositioning Graphic original point
Hi Members. I try to reposition my strike from a 14mm offset up. I moved and repositioned the graphic file and redrew it from the drawing, but it was still in the same position. How can I make reposition for the graphic original point?Round parts
Seems ridiculous, but I can't figure out how to cut a round part. I'm trying to make a simple tabletop. It's the only part in the product, but I added the circle to another product just to get it cut out. Had some trouble adding a circle to the productHow to formulate False Front Width + Filler Width - Drawer Gap
As the title suggests, I'm trying to formulate the total width of my false front to add the width of the filler on left and/or right and subtract the drawer front width gap. Fillers + Cabinet Width - Drawer Left and Right Gap = Total False Front Width.Get ready, a new Cases Portal is coming soon!
Hi Microvellum Community Members! I just wanted to follow up on the announcement we made a few months ago where we mentioned a change was coming. There has been some chatter and other posts where we mentioned some of the details, but we wanted to updatePLINE Z Values
Does anyone have any experience with creating a PLINE token that uses negative Z values? If i use these coordinates: 100;100;1|115;150;1|130;100;1|130;100;-5|102.5;120;-5|102.5;120;1|127.5;120;1 i get this on my drawing: I would expect it to lift andsubassembly name pointers
is it possible to get subassembly name pointers like the part names in the global variables, as we use quite a lot of our modified subassembliesNew Toolbox Release Available Today: Build 23.1.1027.641

Hello everyone, I am working on building a library of corner cabinets for my company using our current specifications, and I require the need to alter the width of the chamfer. I have found the following: "Adjusted depth back corner:" =IF(Notched_Corner=1,Notched_Corner_Depth,IF(Chamfered_Corner=1,Chamfered_Corner_Width*SIN(RADIANS(Chamfered_Corner_Angle)),0))Look up table
What is the correct procedure to save a lookup table modification to the global template? I have modified the MDF door internal profile and I need to be able to use it elsewhere. Drawing a blank here.Add odd shaped parts to nests without having to manually add lead-ins/leadouts
We would like to use Microvellum to layout nests patterns for custom parts such as wall plates or curved countertops. We don't yet use SMT or SMA. I've been working with the 2D machining tools and have been able to successfully create nests, but we areAutomatic detection of Hinges Clashing with Internal Options
At the moment I have to check if hinges are clashing with inner drawers and fixed/adjustable shelves or any other internal option, it is something that is sometimes forgotten about and material is wasted if the hinge is clashing with a shelve or shelveLOOKUPTABLE()
Could a function be added for returning the LookupTable a cell is currently in? Similar to COLUMN() and ROW(). An example use for this function would be in the VLOOKUP formula: VLOOKUP("Text",LOOKUPTABLE(),COLUMN(),FALSE).2D Nesting and lead-in/lead out
Hi all, We don't do a lot a nesting from 2D drawings but I now have a job that it doesn't make sense to go and solid model analyze to create parts to just have to fiddle with the nest again. The problem is that my border cuts on my parts does not seemBack Dado
I am running into an issue with the back dado. I recently moved from MV 2019 to MV 2023. In 2019 the dado for the thick back almost looks like a pocket route. The bit selected will route in the shape of a rectangle. In 2023, the route is only a rabbetLeft and Right Panels do not "Behave" the same way.

How do you get the dimensions to draw like this? Any help is appreciated, thanks.Unable to Rotate Hardware
I am trying to set up machining for closet rods, and am currently having difficulty having my hardware rotate to the orientation I need. I can get it to move where I need it, but when I use the rotations it does not move. I believe it is stuck in theSheet estimates report, prior to issuing
HI there, I am a new new user with experience with other programs and I am hoping to figure out how to do a few things I could do with the last program I used. The first one is a material estimate. is there a way to get a estimated sheet count withoutAdd a picture to a newly created product
How do I add a picture to a newly created product, so it displays a picture of it under the draw product list. ThanksHow to center edge dowels with the CONST token
We recently needed to process some parts out of a 1" material. We are noticing that our edge dowel machining (CONST token) stays at 3/8" from the edge instead of centering at 1/2" on the 1" material.
