edging diagrams on labels
Just noticed in some of the last couple of jobs that I have cut that the labels are being printed with the wrong diagram for edging. For example, a gable might get the diagram for a corner unit shelf. Or a back (which has no edging) will get a diagram showing edging on 2 sides of an open space (no part shown, just the edging lines). I went back and nested the job in ecabs, and printed the labels to the screen there, and they all look fine. So my guess is that CN is missinterpretting them somewhere... maybe? It doesn't happen to all of the labels, just a few here and there.
Any ideas?
Could it be some setting that I have missed?

What version of Control nesting are you running? I did notice that in verion 5.27 of control nesting, that this same sort of issue had been addressed. You may want to update Control Nesting software.
Changes/Additions for v5.27 (5/9/07)
Edgebanding depiction on labels showing just black square (FIXED)
Write CNC crashing in X nest direction but not Y direction in certain cases (FIXED)
Blind Dove Tail tool getting called for chain operations and pocket cleanup operations in certain cases. (FIXED)
Cabinet Vision & KCDW files not loading properly when extension designation .cvdxf & .kcdwdxf are used. (FIXED)

Hi Mark,
Could you sent me the job you just worked with, so that we can take a look at it in particular?
Send the folling files to: program@thermwood.com
- .esj (job files) or .hsf (cabinet files) or esa (assembly files)
- .twd file
Thank you!

Update on findings:
We've taken a look at the Brooking job which you've supplied and definitly see the issue your experiencing with your labels. We know the issue is stemming from eCab. However, were unable to reproduce the issue when creating a new cabinet. We've tested in eCab Build 3 as well as in the version that is about to be released.
- What version of eCab are you running?
- If your running Version 5 Build 3, then what are the exact steps your taking from design, all the way to creating twd? There may be one particular scenario that causes this.

to create these jobs, I am creating batch jobs using a library of cabinets that I have created over the past year and a half. Once the cabinet is loaded into the batch, I open it in cabinet editor and make any adjustments that may be necessary (like changing materials for individual parts). Once the entire job is entered and adjusted, and the names of the cabinets are edited to reflect the job, I then run a nest to make sure everything looks ok, then create the twd (by clicking on the CNC button, adding the open job in the \"for CNC output\" area, then browsing to the same directory and creating a file with the same name but with a twd extension in the \"twd file output\" area).
These cabinets that I am using from my constantly expanding library were originally created about a year and a half ago, and some have been edited a dozen times or so. I am really hoping that you are not going to tell me that I have to recreate my library in the new version of ecabs...
I am running the latest version of ecabs right now, btw.
