RIP 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?How 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

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.
Hello all, new user of Microvellum here, looking for some help. Here is the formula I use for a base cabinet that has the Left side extended back 3" with a Finished end panel attached. The end panel extends front 7/8" to align with drawer/door at frontNesting cabinets in order of cabinet number
How do I change the nesting settings to issue cabinets in order rather than all mixed up? Thanks,Dimension token help
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.

We've got a couple jobs coming up that are very heavy on metal laminates - Chemetal, Alumasteel, etc. I'm curious what setups some of you might be using to cut said materials. What bits do you recommend? What feed rates and spindle speeds do you haveDust Control
Hi, We run sheets on a Biesse rover A FT (flatbed 3.6x1.8m) Prior to using MV there was a feature in BNest (Biesse's Software) where the sweeping arm would go over every board before it was pushed onto the unloading table. This would remove large amountsMitered Filler Options
My default setting for upper cabinet fillers is set to miter the return. I would like to change this to a butt joint. Where is the setting for this? I have searched the global settings and dipped into the workbooks and cannot locate this. If it doesn'tKing Slide SIMLEAD and ULEAD Now Available in the Foundation Library

Would someone have a product with this lift system integrated? https://www.blum.com/ca/en/products/liftsystems/aventos-hk-xs/assembly/Add a Lead In Option to Straight Line Route Token
The straight line routing machine token is a very easy to use, compared to the extra time it takes to write a PLINE. The only downfall with this token is the inability to add a lead in to the route. This is an issue because we like to try and avoidRenaming Parts in Bulk
Hey all, is there a way to rename the parts in bulk with incrementing names? I am bringing in a lot of parts with the Solid Model Analyzer that are the same, such as a strecher or rib.
