control nesting 6.06

Post by Thomas strembitsky »

I just noticed this when you open control nesting and go to settings > nesting parameters there is a new "group" box at the bottom but it is greyed out and unclick able. but if you open control nesting and then go edit > nesting parameters the box works.

side note it would be really nice to be able to pick the amount of zeros displayed after the decimal. for some reason in metric it doesn't take the direct number you punch in and I don't need 4 places behind the decimal for cabinetry work.

Hi Thomas. The group combo box is greyed out when accessing the Nesting Parameters from the Settings dialog. The group setting is determined on the Settings dialog when using that method to access Nesting Parameters. When using the Edit menu to access the Nesting Parameters, the group combo box is enabled (not greyed out) so it can be used to make the group settings determination.

We'll look into adding that setting for metric decimal numbers. Thanks!
