Vendor Bundles are a tool to help vendors provide a simplified setup process for their users.

What Is a Vendor Bundle?

Vendor Bundles produce a .mmvendor file that any user running MillMage 0.8 or higher can import to load pre-configured Devices.

An example Vendor Bundle, as it will appear to a user upon import.

In addition to Devices and Material Libraries, Vendor Bundles include a Banner Image, custom Device Icon, and a header block for vendor information to be shown to users on import. The header block includes the following sections:

  • Vendor Name
  • About Text
  • Website URL (must start with https://)
  • Resources URL
  • Support Email

Creating a Vendor Bundle

The Vendor Bundle feature requires a MillMage license with a special Vendor flag. If you don't see this option and think it should be there, please email the support team at [email protected] for assistance.

To create a bundle:

  1. Add and configure a device in MillMage.
  2. Click File → Bundles → Export Vendor Bundle.
  3. Click Edit Vendor Info and update the header block with your vendor information.
  4. Upload a Banner Image and custom Device Icon, if desired.
  5. Click Save Vendor Info.
  6. Select the Device(s) and any Tool Libraries you wish to include in the bundle.
  7. Click the Export button.

This process can be repeated with different devices to create a separate bundle for each device you sell. Please test your bundle by importing it into a fresh installation of MillMage to make sure it's configured correctly before providing the bundle to users. Please email the support team at [email protected] for assistance.
