Solid Model Analyzer / Part Orientation
I created a layout of six 2D panels in AutoCAD, and all parts have a grain direction assigned. I imported them into Microvellum, converted them into 3D parts, and then ran the Solid Model Analyzer. I was able to generate the composite drawings correctly,Die wall studs / vertical parts internal notching corner reliefs
I have recently started creating die walls out of Microvellum and have run into the issue wherein my method of relieving the inside corners of notches on studs is not applying. I typically always drilled a 1/2" diameter hole on the corners, however theseCertain Products Not Showing Up in 2D Plan Drawing
When I go to Draw 2D Wall Plan View there are items not showing up on the drawing. I understand that its not going to draw CAD things I added. But I have built this bedroom wall that only has one base cabinet and the rest of the wall is built of MiteredLine Bore Hole Size
I'm attempting to increase our line bore hole size from 5mm to 5.5mm. I've updated G!Shelf_Bore_Diameter to 5.5 and added Tool28 below. The model and nest are drawing the holes correctly at 0.21654 but the G-Code is still coming out as 5mm 0.19685".

Microvellum sent an email to all users on 7/18/2025 with usernames and passwords for accessing a new Microvellum peAk area for training videos. However, I'm having problems getting access to peAk for a new user. As far as I know, Microvellum users withoutFeature Request - Add Snapshot of Face of Nested Material to Nesting Report

Microvellum and Innergy both offer many avenues for training and keeping up to date with the software; however, both systems keep their registration systems separate. (The one exception is the monthly newsletter.) As many events that both Microvellumbrics cad viewbase

Gday guys, I'm very excited to announce that starting June 1st, and throughout the month of June, there will be regular Microvellum Classroom Training events available via peAk. These classes are a combination of Q&A and Demonstration events to learnFeature Request: Assign different colors for different Sheet Stock material to distinguish faces.
This would help out so much to assist with visual cues and catches. Also would help how its the part is going to face on the CNC bed. Different colors on each side of the face so we know know it will nest and render correctly based on materials.New Foundation Library Release Available Today: Build 26.0430
We are happy to announce that a new update for the Foundation Library, Build 26.0430 is now available! New releases of Microvellum's Foundation Library include resolutions for numerous issues, numerous enhancements to existing products and variables,COLOR BY MATERIAL
Hello, Could someone tell me how to assign a different color to each material I create in a microvellum project. I know from the video that it's done, but I can't find it. I was told that it was autocad which manages the colors, but how to assign andFEATURE REQUEST: Add a User Editable Field to Materials for Project Material Callout Numbers
Add a user editable field to the material/edgebanding/hardware libraries for material callout numbers. This would be used when printing reports to show the material callout numbers uses on a Project without having to make the material Project Specific.Feature Request: Enable Export of Processing Center Reports as *.XLSX
This is the reverse of an Innergy idea: https://ideas.innergy.com/ideas/IDEAS-I-4373 If we enable export of *.XLSX reports in the Processing Center, we would be able to upload to Innergy. Currently Innergy does not accept *.XLS files.More Than an Upvote: Better Feedback for Dev, QA, & Library Teams
Hey everyone, - I think we can all agree the current "one vote" system is a good start, but it doesn't always show the full picture. Right now, a minor "nice-to-have" that lots of people upvote looks exactly the same as a "major workflow killer" becauseIssue: duplicate label printer

It would be nice to be able to set formulas that detect if a part has machining to determine a part's processing station. Currently, being unable to detect associative or virtual machining, especially from subassemblies — let alone anything manually addedFeature Request: Layer Controls Within Properties Panel

I dont need to know the length of the box as it it will be piece dependant and snap onto the end,is there any agent in Middle east specially in UAE that can be contacted?
I am based in the UAE and looking to implement a manufacturing solution with CNC integration.

We have a 2D Instructions customized for our auto dimensions and the sorts, but we wanted to start a new library with BSB 26. How do I go about transferring that to the new library from the old. Would i find that in the Database Management to exportMachining Tokens: Highlight on part when selected
Similar to how a part will highlight in model space when you are cycling through them in the Part Properties, it would be extremely beneficial if machining tokens acted the same way & highlighted in model space when cycling through them..

I've spent a week tweaking a set of uppers. Then today I went to redraw and they were just gone. So I close everything before saving and open it all back. The product is listed in Product Viewer, it shows in model space. But now when I prompt it, it isHow to save a drawing back into MV as a Project ?

Hey Legends, I am trying to cut some boat building plywood for a friend.

I've trialled the following-Feature Request: Rotate Part in Nest - Arbitrary vs 90 deg. Increments
I love the ability to rotate parts in the nest more than 90 degrees.. but it would be nice to have a couple/few more buttons for this. Previously, the button would just rotate 90 degrees and if clicked again, it would return the part to the original orientation.Toe Kick above finished floor?
Is it possible to place a toe kick 1/4" above the finished floor? I know the front is controlled with the floor scribe prompt, but I don't know how to get the sub frame off the floor.add tabs to routes
I think it would be a great feature if we could add TABS to cutouts or any toolpaths, not only bordersBlum REVEGO - Incorrect Hardware Drilling
Just a heads up, I used the Blum REVEGO product from Foundation Library 26.0112 and released a Uno+Uno cabinet. Turns out the hardware drilling placement is incorrect. I should have verified layout with Blum's E-services but I didn't. Don't make the sameTrue Machining with Solid Model Analyzer
It would be nice is there was an option to show the true tool paths and parts (radius in a corner) that shows where the router bit will leave a radius instead of a 90 degree inside corner. It would just be nice to see because once and awhile I miss spotsMaterial not found
Any idea why i'm getting this error? The material is in the spec group material list as you can see in the second screenshot. I even created a new one from the design data screen. Material exists in the database as you can see in the third screenshot.Pilot holes will not turn off
I have changed the method from screws to none on my thick backs but it is still putting pilot holes? Is there another method to stop the holes from drilling.SMA template product
I'd guess not, but is there a template product that SMA uses that we can modify to add some basic prompts, subassemblies, etc? For instance, I'd like to add a prompt to toggle "hidden parts", add a subassembly for our Flatshots, and remove the defaultFEATURE REQUEST: Smart Layer Corner Type of "None" to do Pure SWEEP
