Nesting Optimization Report with Edgebanding
It would be really beneficial for us to have edge banding on the optimization report. We don't use labels to identify our parts coming off our CNC. We write the cabinet number and draw a line on the edge that needs to be edged. Here's a screenshot ofFace 6 programs/Lables
im having a bit of an issue, seems to only happen on corner units (that i can tell) I print lables for parts with face 6 drilling, as usual... so the cnc operator knows what parts need it and which axis to flip the part.... our issue is, the lable pictureMicrovellumWorkOrder & MicrovellumGeometry
Installing a foundation library on SQL Server to run beside our component library until we can transition. Assuming i can just create the “MicrovellumWorkOrder” & “MicrovellumGeometry.” databases but name them differently for the new version. Leave theFeature Request - Double Pass and Tabs
It would be great if we could use "Double Pass All Parts" AND have "Tabs" in the same Nesting sheets. At the moment it's either one or the other, but not both.Repeating barcode
I have a "Gremlin" its been happening for a little while this Barcode Number "08VEAE01" Keeps Repeating.. I have tried to replicate it and it wont replicate where two different parts get the same name... but that same does appear in my test. I'm not sureTabs for cutouts
Hello Not sure if this problem (at least for me) was brought up before; Can Microvellum add tabs to routes and not only to border routes? My small cutoffs getting loose and messing up productionDelete a sheet in COMPOSITE but still comes up in REPORT??
Ok in Foundation (wasn't an issue in COMPONENT or their REPORTs) - You delete a SHEET but in the NESTING OP report it still EXISTs - But with NO data for items because the items are delete. And it ALSO has a blank dummy page in PART LABELS too. DeletedFEATURE REQUEST - Tool information needs to be visible on reports
We have the border tool displaying on our nest reports using the Material Code from the PlacedSheets table. We would like to display more information (like the description "3/8" RH Comp" as an example) about that tool if possible, but I can't figure outpull hole diameter issue
Right now, in the hardware tokens, the drill diameter for pulls is hard-coded to '5'. There is a global variable for that setting as well: "Handle Hole Diameter". This value is also set to '5', but of course there's no link there if the pulls' tokensAssociative Machining across multiple products
Hi All, For our toe kick lighting, we create a dado along the entire length of the run off cabinets and install a recessed light extrusion. For the MV strip lighting insert, it only creates a dado on the bottom outside (image below) I am looking for anWhy are my doors and parts not rotating correctly on composites?
When using grain i would like the rotation of my doors, sides, etc too be consistent. What is causing this not to be? Is it something MV is capable of doing, or am I asking for too much? Currently have to go through my nest and rotate by handIssues with Snaps
Does anyone else seem to be having issues with the snaps in BricsCad with just basic drafting? I feel like I am constantly adjusting points I snap too. Maybe I need to tweak a setting, but I was just wondering if anyone else was having the same issuReports needs openings for blind corners
As per the title the reports are missing the opening sizes for the blind corners, i have to measure and add them in manually as per the screenshot. Thanks Youll also notice the middle stile is reporting wrong width but that is less important.Overlay top and Rails both selected
I wanted to have top rails that are overlay but was told that isn't possible. However both are now selected and i don't know how to unselect them. I went to the spec group but can't select it there. Any thoughtsTwo different size screws used in construction is it possible?
We currently are using screws and dowels for construction. Conformat screws (7mm) used for construction of top/bottoms and ends. We want to use a smaller screw (3/16") to attach the back to the sides. Is there a way to specify two different sizes forBase_Door VS Base_MDF_Door
Can someone explain the difference between these two? Base_ door and Base_MDF_Door. Is the Base_MDF_Door, one that gets routed out to look like a 5 piece door?Composite file shows all parts under one product
Work Order shows correct product numbers. Reports show the product number. The composite file shows all parts are under Product 1.00.Need Hardware
Accuride 3634/3634EC Accuride 7950/7957 Rakks surface mount brackets Does anybody have these they would be willing to export to me?How do I export-oversize a part?
I would like our countertop backsplashes to be automatically oversized when exporting for production while maintaining the models and drawings at final dimensions. I presume this function is somewhere in the Part Properties or a Workbook but I cannotSwitching "Construction Methods"
Changing the “construction method” for one cabinet in a room to dowel construction, from invisible fasteners in “Prompts”, does not change all parts. Why do we need to go into “Advanced Construction Options” to completely make changes to all parts for"Invisible Fasteners
I changed my assembly from dado to "Invisible Fasters" for the master 2 bay vertical and the division has the machining running X. Should it not be in the YFormula Help
Good Morning, I'm trying to set up an Alert or two regarding tall cabinets and rollout shelves. Is there an "includes" or "contains" command that we can use in Microvellum? I haven't found anything that works. I'm trying to formulate something similarFoundation Library Drawer Boxes - Material Selection
In the Foundation Library I am curious how others have it setup in their formula driven materials to be able to select between drawer box materials. As 95% of out projects utilize melamine drawer boxes, but occasionally we get a project that wants hardwoodLibrary Designer - Cannot copy subassembly?
I'm sure I'm missing something basic here so apologies if this is a very stupid question, but how do I copy a subassembly in library designer? At last week's Innergy conference I was convinced to finally give the foundation library a go. One thing thatHinge routing operation is also happening to the countertop dogbone routing
After successfully setting up the hinge cup routing operation, the operation is automatically happening in the countertop dogbone operation(s) as well. The dogbone is being routed correctly, but the hinge cup routing is happening in the same locationThe Report Group: Nesting, failed to process all reports.
I processed some cabs in a project that had two rooms. I got the error "The Report Group: Nesting, failed to process all reports. This is our main report we print out call a Nesting Optimization Report. Any suggestions? Everything I process for productionHardware List
If I wanted to print a hardware report of all of our hardware in the current library, is there a way to do that? Specifically talking about all of our hinges so we can just look at the report to see if the hardware numbers are correct?Why is ortho off when we open a dxf? Can you change it once and for all?
Please put ortho on by default so we don't have to always click on it before drawing linesQ: How are feature requests prioritised?
Just a question around how feature requests are actually prioritised now. Is it mostly based on likes and engagement, or is production impact weighed separately? I ask because writing a proper forum post takes a fair bit more time than submitting a ticketExtruded Die Walls
Can we get double top and bottom plates added to the extruded die walls? These walls are great, would just love to see this added to prompts possiblyHow do you change the material QTY on the WO Report?
We are looking to see if we can find a way when making an MTO that the panel qty count tell us either an exact usage (can be decimal) or a % of the panel being used. I see the formula here but dont know exactly how to make this convert to what we waFeature Request - Move Certain Toolfile Info Into Processing Stations
So this may not affect too many people and it is pretty minor but I thought i'd put it out there anyway. As it stands we have a couple of toolfiles for the exact same machine but because certain settings are only in the toolfile and not the processingCustom Shortcuts file on BricsCad
Hello, I have the custom file with the Shortcuts for MV and I need to replace the default file on BricsCad on a new computer. Can anyone guide me on the process to do this? I did it a while ago I can't find the file I need to replace. Thank youleft/right drawer fronts still not labeled
so i saw that on build 25.0319 they added left/right part names to drawer parts on a side by side draw config. but we are on 25.1121 but are drawer fronts still aren't labeled left and right. is there a prompt i'm missing?Label IDs
We are currently experiencing an issue with the IPP in BSB generating duplicate part ID numbers in column 13 of the .pnx file and column 12 of the .csv file. For example: Sheet 1 contains part numbers 1, 2, 3, etc. Sheet 2 again starts with part numbersJob Creation
When adding a new shop drawing into a job how do you specify the correct drawing template. I have a drawing template and was wanting to use it but anytime I go to load into a new drawing it doesn't transfer into the project. - Cam MFeature Request : Maximum Tool Depth
I would like to see an option in the toolfile that sets the maximum cut depth. We have some tools that can only cut 1" deep into material. We recently had sliding closet doors that are 1.25" thick. The locks we had in these doors called for a tool thatMoving the Microvellum panel to a ribbon
I was thinking it would be a good option if we could move the entire left screen MV panel into a ribbon on the upper part of Bricscad. I personally use mostly keyboard aliases so I don't navigate this much between ribbons, so having one for MV would freeV-grooves on MDF slab door
Any idea on how to add vertical v-grooves to MDF slab doors?Better resource for editing visibility in a block in BricsCAD
Does anybody have better documentation on how do actually do this? AutoCAD was so much more intuitive.Next Page
