Re: why won't this job nest?!?!
It wouldn't nest for me either. But I went to the filter it and when I looked some of your parts have some odd dimensions. Some have very large negative numbers for parts dimensions. I am sure this is what is causing the problem for you. Sounds like you need to look at those cabinets, probably have to rebuild them.

Jason, Try highlighting Cabinets individualy or groups of cabinets & going to cutlist. Find the cabinet or cabinets that are showing a negative number of sheet goods.
Take the offending cabinet or cabinets to the Cabinet editor one at a time.
Go to a editor such as add doors or shelves and then go back to main. Now check the cutting list for that cabinet.
Hopfully the cut list looks proper now. Return to layout & Try to nest the job now.
Make sure you fix all offending cabinets if there is more than one.
I have had this problem a few times and that is how I fixed it.

Jason
The problem is in Cabinets 7, 8, 9, 10 & Filler #11
I tried what I mentioned in my previous post & It WILL Fix the problem.
It nested fine after I took each cabinet to the editor so the cabinet could regernerate itself
It must be some bug or something
