5 Piece door is showing gaps between rails and stiles
There is a gap between rails and stiles on a 5 piece door The tongue length measures at 0.5" (needs to be 0.375") . Which is causing the overall rail length to be 0.25" short In the "S" workbook, the tongue length is set to 0.375". If I change it to 0.5"Choice: Toolbox AC or Toolbox BSB
Hi Community, It's been 3 months since BSB launched, and I have put a lot of detailed feedback and done massive search regarding whether we can transition our team's heavy muscle drafting memory from AutoCAD to BricsCAD, and we are still struggling, asWork Orders Summary with Face Frame cabinets
I just used the face frame category for the first time . Everything seemed fine until I processed the cabinets and looked at the work order summary. The width shows the inside dimension of the cabinet not the overall width. when the PM and I were lookingAbility For .mprx CNC Output
Adding ability to produce .mprx files in G-code to keep up with newer WoodWOP versions. Gives operators better variable support and data manipulation in components vs the .mpr output.Cross Section Wall
I would like to turn of the Cross Section Wall. However, turning off the 2D_Section Layer, will hide all Geometry. What "Prompt" controls the Layer for the Section Wall.Hinge Bore Visible Through Faces in Conceptual
Why is this happening? We have a client that wants a more Cabinet Vision/Mozaik look, but the hinge bores are visible through the faces. Even if I turn off the hardware layer, the hinge bores are still visible in the Conceptual Visual Style. This is withVauth Sagel Bins
Hi @Lenny Scianna, Do you know if the Vauth sagel range of bins (VS ENVI SPACE) are planned for library development in the near future? I was going to create our own but thought it would be worth checking Thanks!Parts Excluded from Optimization
Using multiple sheet sizes of a certain material we sometimes get an error 'there is not enough material' for a given material when processing. We can usually resolve the error by adjusting sheet quantities and optimization priorities using the ModifyNew Microvellum on BricsCAD User - Challenges with AutoCAD-centric Training
Hello everyone, I'm a new user working with Microvellum on BricsCAD, and I'm finding the official training videos, particularly those in the "Plan to Production" playlist, challenging to follow. The videos are great, but they're demonstrated in an AutoCADDowel Machining on Stretchers/Rails - Machining from Back Edge instead of Front?
I our old Legacy Library the rear stretcher machines from the back edge instead of the front edge, and in the Foundation Library it currently machines from the front edge. Is there a way to change this in the Foundation Library so the rear stretcher machinesDrill bit "Type Info"
Right now our CNC's have 5mm brad tip bits installed. In my other CNC's at other companies we opted for V-tip bits so we could drill for pulls without blowing out the front faces of the doors. I don't recall this 'Type Info' setting in those tool files“Hinge plate offset from side” is incorrectly using the “Hinge distance from side” value as the plate’s distance from the door edge. (for blind corner hinges)
There’s an issue with the blind corner hinge plates. The “Hinge plate offset from side” prompt is tied to a lookup table value that only references the hinge distance from the side (22.5), and the system then applies this in the opposite direction toADA SINK ANGLED FRAME
Ok, just did most recent update and ada sink 100% better. But . couple things first not biggy but no scribe option ,how can cabinet have no scribe. Bigger issue why still does panel not work like a face part /with false front. reveals and graining? iTemplate Time Stamp
Strange, I have a template with a date in the 1600's. Anyone else experience this? Wonder what life was like working with a computer in that Century.Cloud Enabled Workflows
--Was recently approached by a freelance drafting firm making the following claim: Although I've set up remote access via VPN, RDP, etc. in the past, this is the first I've heard of MV natively supporting it. Is there any truth to the above claim or is.mprx vs .mpr loading into WoodWOP
Anyone have experience with the .mprx format? We updated the tool file extension in the settings to .mprx, which changes the file, but produces an error when trying to load directly into WoodWOP. Just curious if anyone else has had this issue and figuredUsing Dynamic UCS (DUCS) When Adding Dimensions
We just published a new article that shows how to use Dynamic UCS (DUCS) in Toolbox BSB (BricsCAD) to place dimensions directly on 3D faces. If you’ve ever wished you could dimension a product without switching to a front view or side view first, thisDefault settings and Presspull on BSB
Hi everyone, I’m hoping someone can help me out. When I’m working with BSB, the value of VIEWRES defaults to 500. I’d like to set it permanently to 16000, but I can’t find any way to make that change stick. Every time I create a new room, it goes backFEATURE REQUEST - Project Specification Group In Use Message
When editing Project Spec. Groups it is possible for more then one engineer to have them open. This can cause the changes to be over written due to the caching of the data when the editor is opened. It would be nice for those of us that use SQL SeverRandomness, is it possible?
Is it possible through a formula to make grooves random distance between each other between a set space? the bottom prompt is the one i'm looking to change.

In the Face Frame Library, especially on the Master Horizontal Designer FF and the Master Multi Carcass Designer Cabinet, it would be great to be able to set the door overlay independently for the inside hinges and the out side hinges. The photo below2D Part Editor Menu

For the life of me I cannot find where the 3D for the ADA Brackets is hiding within the prompts of the Foundation ADA Sink Frame. As in our Foundation Library the A&M Brackets draw in 3D just fine but the Rakks ADA Brackets do not draw at all in 3D. IToe Kick nesting
Does anyone know why the toe kick nesting notch now does this instead of just cutting a square out? It feels wasteful in nesting time, and I cannot find the setting to turn it off.Toolbox Error when importing pdf's

I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for a rendering add-on for BricsCAD that will give us not quite photo-realistic, but something better than what BricsCAD offers natively?New (beta) Optimizer - prompt for True Shape
The new True Shape Settings in the Beta nesting optimizer seems to be great so far. We love all of the new enhancements. BUT, it would be nice if you could leave Block Nesting on as default, and *quickly* enable True Shape per 'work order' or 'batch'.Upper Filler Scribe Construction
Hello, How do you control the way Scribe Fillers on upper cabinets are constructed? Latest libraries have the filler returns dadoed into the front filler. We do not construct them like that. The Global Variable that supposedly controls that, seams tobrics cad viewbase

We are using OEM and some of our drafters are looking to get the UI to scale a little larger so its easier for them to see. Is there an easy way to adjust this for them and scale some things bigger?How do I change CAM or DOWEL types on a product
I have products that utilize multiple CAM types. Sometimes depending on the part and sometimes depending on the material thickness. For instance, the back panel will have a Rafix 10/20, a fixed shelf will use a Rafix 20 and everything else is Sample Cam.Material Requests for Multiple Cabinet Runs - How do you handle them?
I am wondering how other cabinet shops are handling material requests when you have a project that has multiple runs? We use production Coach and do cabinet runs of 30 to 60 cabinets, and have been doing a separate material request for each run, and thenTrim Cuts
When cutting a sheet that has both face 5 and 6 machining, we machine the face 6 first as a full sheet. Microvellum does a trim cut for a reference edge before flipping, however this cut is a full depth pass. Is there a way to control this so that itHelp - DP3A TAP Pull to be flush with EB
Team, Do you happen to know if, when choosing the DP3A (Mockett), it generates an operation to notch the door to the same pull thickness, ensuring the pull is flush with the edge?Work Order - Split Edgebanding
How would I make the edge band report split for either subassemblies, or parts, etc. I was thinking of using the comment section of the parts to basically say "I am door". Then filter it by that. Example, we have cabinets then we have trim items thatNew PC setup.

We have been working on dialing in our tooling strategies lately, and have had great success with a maximum pass of 1/2" while using 1/2" tooling. A majority of the material we work with is 3/4", so that's running two passes (one at 1/2", one at 1/4").Next Page
