    1. Connector hardware (toggle bolts) available.
    2. Buildup options.
    3. Backsplash options.
    4. Offset from Polyline variable.
    5. Position of product Left or Right of line.
    6. Countertop front edge detail options.
    7. Supports recalculation of geometry with product prompt depth changes (without the need to extrude from polyline again).
    8. Supports additional more complex polylines such as non-blended radius conditions.
    9. More features planned for future enhancements.
  1. Added Galvin Prime Slim Drawers. (No Graphics) (AU/NZ Market only)

Modifications

  1. Modified the rear notch on the Front Stretchers to match the Rear Stretchers. The notch will now look at "G!Dado_Small_Part_Notch_Distance_To_Rear_Edge".
  1. Replaced many M2U functions throughout the library with UCN to prevent undesirable default imperial values from appearing. For example, instead of “=M2U(1,Accuracy)" which results in “0.03937” inches, we now use “=UCN(0.0312,1)” or “=UCN(0.0625,1)” which provides fractional values (1/32” or 1/16”) more commonly used by imperial users.
These changes will not affect metric users. However, for imperial users, some default variables might change slightly in new library installs. M2U values that match specific hardware specifications have not been changed.*
  1. Changed how the globals “Back Width Adjustment” & “Back Height Adjustment” behave when they are both used together with Full Applied backs. The back sizes will adjust, however the X & Z origins will remain flush with the left side and bottom of cabinet. This will prevent any associative screw hole machining issues.
  1. All drawers updated to use "G!Drawer_Bottom_Hole_Depth" for the Bottom Hole Depth instead of a fixed value.
  1. Wood Drawers now use "G!Drawer_Box_Dowel_Target_Spacing" instead of "VLOOKUP(PARTMACHINEY(),G!LookupTableTargetSpacingDowels,2,TRUE)"
  1. Default value for "G!Drawer_Box_Dowel_Target_Spacing" changed to "UCN(3.7795,96)"
  1. For Solid Wood Drawer fronts, Stiles and Rails will now be the same width by default.*

Resolutions General

  1. Resolved the Solid Wood Door "Add Finish Label" prompt to match Finished Faces subassembly. The prompt will now correctly display one label per product when global “Finish Label Condition” = “Product”.
  1. Resolved an issue with all Finished Face/MV Profile Door/Solid Wood Door subassemblies referencing an incorrect column in the Door Wizard "D!LookUpTableDoorStyle" table. Various parameters such as “Default Top Rail Width” will now correctly reference the Door columns when it’s a door and the Drawer columns when it’s a drawer front.*
  1. Resolved an issue with the Hettich WingLine Guide hardware graphics. Should no longer cause issues with the Flatshot feature.
  1. Added a 140mm option to the Hafele Alto drawer system for the NZ region.
  1. Resolved a Hinge Plate issue for right hand doors in corner diagonal cabinets.
  1. Resolved an issue with Base Under Counter Oven product that was affecting the bottom Facia.
  1. For Solid Wood Drawer fronts, corrected "Use Single Solid Wood Front SA" so it will not reference the Min Door Height (column 13) when it's a drawer front.
  1. Resolved an issue in certain subassembly insert components that were incorrectly displaying Fixed Shelf Qty prompts when bay 2 was set to Adj Shelf.
  1. Resolved a machining issue in all Corner Cabinet’s right-side backs. Dado tokens were missing a value for parameter 5 Dado Thickness. This seemed to only affect users using a Saw.
  1. Resolved an issue when using Buyout Doors. Default buyout material used is no longer zero thickness.

Additions/Resolutions Face Frame Cabinetry

  1. Added the option for Interior Components to reference Frame Opening vs Box Opening. When selected, certain interior inserts will reference the Face Frame Opening Height instead of the Interior Cabinet Height, allowing them to be centered in the frame opening.

Added new global variables for the Adjustable Leg subassemblies as they were looking at the Toe kick offsets. New global variables have been added: 
    1. “Adjustable Leg End Offset”
    2. “Adjustable Leg Finished End Offset” 
    3. “Adjustable Leg Back Offset” 
  5. Updated the hinge plate setback as well as the door reveals in the Diagonal and Transition cabinets. Default results should be improved in these scenarios. 
  6. Resolved issues when adding a Component Door insert into an opening.  
    1. The Prompts "Is_DivisionLeft""IS_Division_Right""Is_Shelf_Top""Is_Shelf_Bottom" are now visible prompts on the Construction Options tab.

Resolutions General 

  1. Resolved numerous issues and inconsistencies with all drawer system subassemblies. Reviewed, compared, and conducted extensive testing within each drawer subassembly. Some items addressed (not a complete list): 
    1. Resolved issues with switching between back over bottom and back around bottom construction. 
    2. Reduced complexity of (Space_Required_Under_drawer_Bottom) Formulas, verified they were subtracting (Reduce_Bottom_Thickness) 
    3. All Drawer Systems now contain 3SIDEDCUTOUT for center notch function. 
    4. All drawer system bottoms that receive rout machining to size the thickness are now using a 4-sided cutout token on the part instead of an associative Dado token from a phantom part. This solves some reported Toolbox post processing (nesting) issues. 
    5. Many other issues resolved.
  2. Global "ADA Sink Toe Kick Options" category no longer missing from Library Update. 
  3. Resolved an issue with sink cutout graphic not displaying in 3D.

Year of 2023

This section lists all of the Foundation Library builds that released in the year of 2023.

Microvellum Foundation Library Release Notes | Build 23.1114

The following release notes apply to Microvellum Foundation Library, Build 23.1114

Special Note #1: Highly recommend updating Toolbox to build 23.1.1010 or newer as this library update zip includes new features only available to users running this TB version (or newer). Previous versions will not import categorized materials now included with the update.

Special Note #2:  This update includes a potential Breaking Change involving drawer runners for wooden drawers. This will only affect users who are updating vs installing a new library. The factory LookUpTable “LookUpTableSystemDrawerSlide” has been refactored to better accommodate undermount drawer runners. This also addresses issues when users are using varying material thicknesses for their drawers such as 12mm, 16mm, and 18mm. Any custom wood drawer subassemblies OR current existing projects will need their wood drawers updated to avoid errors. Any customizations users have made to this table will need to be restored.  Check under the Modifications section for more information on the new global variable created to circumventing this change.

  1. Added new functionality in the factory LookUpTable “LookUpTableSystemDrawerSlide” to better accommodate when some drawers require front and back notches (column 8 and 12).
  1. Added Master Double Sided Cabinet FF product.

Modifications

  1. Note for updating users only: To prevent issues with existing projects, we have added a global variable called “Use Legacy Wood Drawers” that can toggle between the legacy behavior and the updated behavior. If your project contains older versioned wood drawers, this variable can be selected to prevent issues. If you are running updated v23.1114 wood drawers and want the new functionality, uncheck this global. 
  1. The factory LookUpTable “LookUpTableSystemDrawerSlide” has been refactored to better accommodate undermount drawer runners. This also addresses issues when users are using varying material thicknesses for their drawers such as 12mm, 16mm, and 18mm. Any custom wood drawer subassemblies OR current existing projects will need their wood drawers updated to avoid errors. Any customizations users have made to this table will need to be restored.

  1. *For multi bay closet products we needed the ability to have the base and top of each bay to line up with system 32 when changing the bay height. We have added prompts for each bay to calculate the bay height when using system 32. Each bay now has a "Required Bay Height" prompt. The user can enter the required height and the height of the bay will be calculated by the "Bay Height" which will calculate to the nearest derivative of 32mm.
  1. *Previously you could only change the height of the bays to be less than the closet height which would rase the bays off the floor for a wall hung closet. We now have the ability to make the bay height greater than the closet height, which will increase the bay height above the closet height.

Year of 2022

This section lists all of the Foundation Library builds that released in the year of 2022.

Microvellum Foundation Library Release Notes | Build 22.1207

The following release notes apply to Microvellum Foundation Library, Build 22.1207


Additions

  1. Added a new subassembly called Decorative Routing which can be added to any product to produce parametric decorative routing to any face. To demonstrate, this has been added to the Valance product and the Box End product.
  2. Added a generic 2D Leg Leveler section drawing to represent leg levelers in 2D cabinet sections. Updated the hardware drawing “Leg Leveler Section.dwg” to match your desired leg leveler.
  3. Added new global variable “Cabinet Depth Includes Door”, located inside the User Preferences category. Select the checkbox to include the Finished Face (Door) thickness and the Door to Cabinet Gap as the product depth for open cabinets. Otherwise, the Depth of all cabinets will only be the carcass box.
Added a new subassembly, 2D Instructions, to facilitate a new location for storing 2D draw tokens (see Modifications below).

Modifications

  1. Moved the location of all 2D Plan view, Elev view, Cross Section, Elev Section, & Plan Section draw tokens for most regular Frameless cabinets. They are now inside a single new subassembly called 2D Instructions. At this time, the Corner, Angle, Closet, Face Frame, & other specialty products remain unchanged.
The reason the location of the draw tokens was moved is to encourage users to customize their own 2D text, dimensioning, and other annotations. After this update, users can exclude updating the “2D Instructions” subassembly, preventing their customizations from being overwritten.
  1. The default Depth value of all open cabinet products will no longer include the door thickness & gap. Select the new global option “Cabinet Depth Includes Door” to revert to the previous behavior.
  2. Selecting "Screw Construction" for Nailers will automatically switch to "Dowel Construction" at Finished Ends.

Resolutions

  1. Resolved origin issues in certain cabinets when the finished end was a different thickness than the unfinished end. This occurred in double drawer & blind corner with drawer cabinet products.
  2. Resolved issue in the Internal Drawers With Faces subassembly. Drawer Depths will now calculate correctly.
  3. Resolved issue with certain Tab Pull 2D elevation drawings.
  4. Resolved issue with Aluminum Handle Door 2D elevation at Upper cabinet conditions. Also, the handles will now be on the HWR layer.
  5. Resolved issue with Blind Corner Mounting plates. Plate Location From Door Edge (X Origin) was not correct for Right Swing conditions.
  6. 2D Cross Section drawing of Countertops will now follow the parametric depth of the cabinet product instead of a global depth value.
  7. Resolved a Fixed Shelf Dado thickness issue inside the Vertical Splitter subassembly.
