Bug Report: Sheet Images

Post by Tommy Wieler »

Been noticing this for quite some time already, but with the new update bringing sheet images more to the forefront, I thought it might be time to mention it.
Whenever I nest parts that include modeling, (mdf modeled doors for example) and I use manual nesting to move the parts around, the resulting sheet images are complete gibberish.
This only happens on parts that include modeling, in my experience.

By the way, if there is a more appropriate means of communicating bug reports, please let me know. So far I've basically just been using this forum as my means of communicating...

Tommy,

Can you post an export and a screenshot of what is it before moving, then after? Seems to be behaving OK for me so I want to see what you are seeing. If you can't post you can email to cabinets@thermwood.com

Generally for bug reporting you can email CNC Automation for their assistance.

Turns out my assessment of the criteria needed to replicate the issue was not quite correct. Strictly moving parts around on a sheet works perfectly fine. However, the problem DOES occur when moving parts between sheets. See images below.

In the above image, I nested three doors onto one sheet.
Now, I created a new empty sheet, and moved the small door to the new sheet...

And that image shows sheet 2.

The export you asked for is also attached.
As always, thanks for your help Clint!

Tommy,

Got it and have it reproducing. I've put the issue in for the software engineers. We are really close to a release so it may not make it for the next version. If it does you should see it in the release notes. Thanks for letting us know!

Tommy,

This should be fixed with version 7 that was just released.

I saw the release notes said that the issue was fixed, so I went to try it out, and while it is still not perfect, it is a huge improvement. At least the sheets are readable now. Some of the lines are not quite aligned properly, or don't quite draw correctly, but WAY better than it was.
