FEATURE REQUEST: Dynamic Product Image Dimensions
At our shop(High end residential cabinetry) we give our guys on the floor construction drawings for each cabinet. In those drawings we use the dynamic product image from Microvellum. I made dynamic block that we use to dimension that product. Its in aCabinet Hinges for Thick Doors
Hi, I am currently running into an issue, and I wasn't sure if anyone might have found a solution or not. I'm looking for a thick door hinge that would overlay a face frame 1-1/4", and have a 1/4" reveal on the hinge side. The door would need to be aCopy a project in the Data Base.
Team, I am trying to create a copy of a project in the database, but it is not getting synced with MV.FEATURE REQUEST: Move “Product Drawing Setups” to Global controlled prompts.
The “Product Drawing Setups” are created and controlled on a per computer basis, allowing each user to make their own setup and changes based on their desired look. For a company that wants to create and control the basic standards of our drawings soPart Label - Edge Indicator
Hello, We used to have labels for the parts in the shop. We'd like to update our information regarding the edges. I'd like to replace the 'X' on the part drawings with something else. For example: E = Exterior edge or I = Interior edge. Does anyone amongRFID Suggestions
Hello, We are a small custom cabinet shop (~12 employees) exploring the option of RFID. Our main pain point we think this might solve is our CNC machined fronts that we have finished out of house. Because we are a custom shop, we have multiple customEditing Custom Drawer Fronts
Brand new MV user here, designing my first real vanity after training. My vanity (floating 2 bay, 2 drawer stack) needs to have a 12 inch void in the center with a recessed access door. All that is set up, but I need the drawer fronts to come togetherMV Undo Command
I feel like it would be extremely useful to have a MV Undo command, Maybe there are some major technical hurdles here but it seems like one of the biggest improvements to useability as a new adopter...Splay profile handles
is it possible to add the profile handles on the prompts instead of going into each door or drawer front? i know we can do it in the globals but would be nice if we can just add it to this cabinet etcNew Foundation Library Release Available Today: Build 25.0919
We are happy to announce that a new update for the Foundation Library, build 25.0919 is now available! New releases of Microvellum's Foundation Library include resolutions for numerous issues, numerous enhancements to existing products and variables,nesting reports error
Since i started the free trail of bsb and my work is on the toolbox 2025 i now cant off nest layouts it comes up with error. i cant even open the report designer to check the same error pops up very annoying. see screenshot attachedSplit Tall Blind corner pantry unit
I have a customer that wants a blind walk in pantry that is 1500w x 800d x 2400h. It would be great if there was an option for a split blind cabinet like the split blind corner unit. Has anyone out there found a way of doing this? It would be a good editionFEATURE REQUEST: Globally Controlled Subassemblies
Would it be possible to have subassembly selection controlled thru the globals, the same way "2D Instructions" is controlled?Mouse wheel Left-Right Tilt click to scroll sideways
It would be awesome if we could use the side to side mouse wheel tilt "buttons" would scroll the workbook sideways like you can in Excel. Brought this up during "open mic" section of roadmapping event 2025/09/04 Mouse Wheel Side ClickBSB - Attribute Editor "Highlight" color in dark mode
Question: Is it possible to change the "Highlight" line color in the BSB Attribute Editor when using dark mode? It is hard to distinguish between what line it highlighted when looking at the values. It is much easier to see and distinguish in lightFeature Request - Printable Comments
Something i've always wished we had was a way to convey information on a nesting patter that comes through onto the report drawing. I assume it would work in the following way, user draws something in 2d, makes it a specific colour on a specific layerTimeframe to design
I'm new with my current employer, and I'm responsible to make sure our engineers are efficient with their time. It seems that most drawings take significantly longer than they did with my previous employer. This company uses Microvellum, where my previousCan i take the value of a prompt and use it in a formula
I have a few custom vanities that are completely one offs, the problem is the way they are designed and we did a lot of the design work during our initial training so they are dated by 18months or so now and will be a massive ball ache to reinvent fromChanging annoscale in BSB breaks product labels
We are using a modified version of the BSB Imperial Annotative Drawing Template and all annotative dims and text. When I change the annotation scale, say from 1/2" = 1'0" to 1" = 1'0" all of the product labels break and require the products to be redrawnReference PDF for Drawing and Associative Tokens
This may be somewhere in the Knowledge Base section, but I couldn't find, so I thought I share it here for anyone that finds it helpful. If you regularly add tokens to your products, drawing tokens or associative machining tokens, this PDF will tell youThe Formula for crown molding is wrong
By default the height of the Crown Molding/cornice is looking for height alone. This fine for probably 99% of the market i guess, but ive changed to read the actual global variable so its now correct with our setup as our isn't flush to the top of theFYI: Foundation Library Version 25.0919 is out
Just an FYI the Foundation library version 25.0919 is available to download from the Portal Haven't been able to find any release notes for it yet @Latisha DaubyEditing Materials and Edge Banding Directly in the Processing Center
Sometimes, when we are about to nest and are in the Processing Center, we discover that the wrong material or incorrect edge banding has been assigned. In such cases, we need to go back to the drawing, fix the issues, and redo the entire process. It wouldFEATURE REQUEST: Updated BSB Templates With All Layer Colors Set to Index Colors
If you try to print in monochrome with the templates included with Toolbox BSB, most of the lines will still print in color because the layers use True Colors instead of Index Colors.FEATURE REQUEST: Indicator for when Select Entire Product is enabled
I think the title says it all. It would be great to know when "Select Entire Product" is enabled. Maybe a button that could be added to the Tool Strip.Processing and Printing?
While doing both of these functions my pop up windows for both do not come to the front of the same screen and switch from screen to screen. Any Ideas on how to fix this?FEATURE REQUEST: MV Clipboard for Drawing Tokens
There are MV clipboards for parts, prompts, machine tokens, subassemblies, and hardware. These are great tools to help speed up work and keep things consistent - especially when you're needing to customize a product, or if you plan to update your libraryChange the Distance Between Parts functionality in the Processing station
Would it be possible to have the Distance Between Parts prompt in each the nesting processing stations changed to a distance to add to the nesting tool diameter instead of a fixed spacing? We occasionally select a tool with a larger diameter than ourFEATURE 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 outCopy room from one project to another
It would be great to be able to copy a single room from one project and place it in another project. This would be helpful when doing our builder work that mix and match from previous projects.Feature Request: Dark Mode
Working with Microvellum 5-10 hours a day I think it would be nice to have a dark mode available. Personally I run everything in dark mode since it is easier on my eyes and would like an option to do in Microvellum, especially in the processing stationFEATURE REQUEST - Workbook Designer Column Descriptions
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 thisFeature Request- Interface for Shop to process remakes in MV ERP
Imagine this...Let's say you run a work order on the floor, and there are 4, 6, or a dozen damaged parts....they slide on the router, or got dropped, etc. What if the operator could scan the filename on the part labels, and it would automatically createFEATURE REQUEST - Separator Bar in Prompts/Wizard
We would like it if there were an option to add separator bars (or something similar) in Product Prompts and Wizard interfaces. This would help us group by categories within a tab. Currently, we use colors, which work ok, but we would prefer colors to reference the "type" of variable (green for "drives cost", red for "hardware related", blue for "banding", or some scheme like that) and have the separators to define the groupings. Not a priority request, necessarily, but could be a nice feature.FEATURE REQUEST - Save and close product prompts interface without redrawing
I would like the option of redrawing a product (or not) after making changes to the product prompts. I know in the product list you can access the product prompts interface and make changes without the redraw each time. But this would be a great timeAccess to live coded globals
A question more for the MV development team. I have some features in the global variables that I have set up that improve my workflow, but I want to advance these options from static names to ones that I can put a variation on. I basically have it allDowel removal at top and back only?
Can you have dowels and conformats machined in the back edges of divisions and ends, but not in the back edge of the top and bottom of the cabinet.Drawer Bank Laminate
Is there currently a way to nest post laminate for multi-drawer banks with the saw optimizer so that instead of having separate plam pieces for each drawer front, it will nest them all in one oversized piece to grain match correctly chasing them withFEATURE REQUEST: Make it easy to turn off dimensions of all products in plan and elevation views
The dimensions are a disaster in Toolbox. Some of the options in the globals don't do what they're supposed to and under 2D Drawings in the prompts, some of those options don't function either. Having to go into the spreadsheets to remove all of the DRAWDIMHow to draw opposite front of corner cabinet in 2D?
I have a corner cabinet inserted into a room and rotated 90°. When I draw the cabinet in 2D for the elevation, I am only able to get the one face. How do I draw the opposite face for the adjoining wall?Next Page
