priority tooling on the nest
Hello, can I assign priority to the tools on the nest, to cut dados, rabbets, drilling first and then cut the part? Thank you.FEATURE REQUEST - Allow to escape when doing pick points.
A nice and simple addition would be the allow the user to press escape when doing pick points to cancel out of it. There is no way to stop pick points once it's started. If I have a formula in the prompt and accidentally double click it, I'm screwed.FEATURE REQUEST: Enhanced Sections
The Draw Sections tool is okay, but it could be better. It'd be nice to have an additional distance setting that would be used in more of a SECTIONPLANE/BOUNDARY type section. This would allow the user to create a cut in a section and only have the partsCtop elevation/section
We are on the 25.0319 library, our countertop product was hard for me to figure out. I was able to get the elevation to show correctly with the correct 3/4" material by adjusting the thicknesses_countertop in the subassembly after some trial and error,Pick points added to section drawing
it would be handy to have a pick points option for drawing a section. i would use the the draw section views of the whole wall more if i didn't have to figure out where on the wall each section cut needs to beSQL CE Viewer

Who else in the face frame market feels that we are unfairly left behind when it comes to features and fixes?Saved updated Sub-assembly to template.....How do I apply these changes to an existing project
I have been making updates to some of the sub-assemblies and products in our library. For example: I added a 3rd drawer spacer to the "wood drawer box" sub-assembly. I saved this sub-assembly change to the template When I create a new project all of myFEATURE REQUEST - SMA to have Product Name Prompt
It would great if after running SMA on a product there was a prompt already setup to name that product. This would save time of adding your own or opening up Overdrive Pro renaming the new product then exiting.FEATURE REQUEST - Clean Out Corners of Notch
It would be great if the machine tokens "3 Sided Notch" and "Square Corner Notch" had options to clean out the corners. This can be done with a Polyline but these machine tokens are far quicker to add than setting up a parametric polyline.Error Handling / Project Part Issues
Has anyone experienced this error in Microvellum? I’m working on a project, and when I try to select or interact with a part, I get this message. Even though the part should be part of the project, I keep receiving this error. Does anyone know what couldFEATURE REQUEST: User Defined Separators for Formula Driven Materials
This was discussed in the Focus Group about the Formula Driven Materials, but I wanted to formalize this request for having user defined separators for the Formula Driven Materials.

This is how I want it to look. This is what my 2D Plan drawing is making. (This go around. It was different last week) New user here. I've been working on a wall with a base cabinet and shelving and fillers and panels and some non-standard things likeMicrovellum has big lags and I also can't nest
My microvellum is extremely slow, every pan has a delay, every zoom has a delay. I can't work like this. I also can't nest my jobs, all my reports are missing dimensions.Beaded Face Frame
Hello, When I have a beaded face frame project, I need to move back 1/8" the hardware of doors and drawers (hinges and slides) so the face of the door/drawer front sits 1/8" back from the face of the face frame. The way I'm doing it now, I cheat the materialBSB Rendering Problem
Hi everyone I found a problem in my Toolbox BSB that I can not figure it out. when there are several machinery on a part the system can not render it properly. So in my project I had to switch to OEM to create my part in Draw Part In 2D and see the resultDowels on labels
Is there a way to modify the way dowels show on the labels? Sometimes our panels are so big that the dowels can be easily mistaken for holes. My initial thoughts are to extend the line that represents a dowel beyond the outside of the panel instead ofDRAWING ONLY OPENS "READ ONLY"
I was working on a room when toolbox closed unexpectedly. When I tried to reopen it, it would only let me open as read only. How do I open it so I can finish editing it? I have tried to restart toolbox but that didn't help. And no one else has the drawingFormula Driven Spec Group

It would be great if there was somewhere inside of Workbook Designer where it would display the name and description of what each column in each workbook is. Even if this just had to be a help button of some sort that would trigger a pop-up with thisSlide Machining For Drawer Box Member
We noticed that the default way MV handles drawer box slide machining includes only the carcass but not the drawer box machining side, for us it is no big deal to do the face 6 flip so that is what we are used to doing. We ended up modifying the woodMake Numbering Sequential on Reports

I am curious the best way to approach this. I started with a box end product with a Face Frame on the front, and I plan on using a ladder kick for install.
