new feature request

[Scott Marshburn]

1.Would it be possable to have a feature in the flip op first to nest or group as many flip ops as possable together per sheet.
2.Would it be possable to put the double pass option in the tool groups area for example no double pass for 1/4 material tool group and a double pass for 3/4 material tool group.
3.Would it be possable to have the cut direction controle in the tool group area.(climb cut for one group and convential for another)

Right on Scott! There is nothing more annoying than a 10 sheet job with 9 flip ops. Often little or no material would be wasted if you could prioritize least amount of flips. Especially when cutting 5' x 10' sheets. It would also be nice if you could specify a climb cut on double pass pieces, and conventional cut on all others( I'm not sure if this is what you mean). I find myself running small drawer parts separately to avoid the double pass lip that occurs when conventional cutting.

Grouping of flip ops is likely to come in the future according to something a little birdie told me.
As far as the other requests I don't know, perhaps TWD could chime in.

That is not actulay what I am talking about not to say that that would not be a benifit but the reason for the cut direction that I am talking about is for a climb cut on tool group 1 witch consist of for example solid material and/or mdf, partical board etc. So that the cut direction would not have to be chainged after every nest and as for that mater you would not have to filter your sheets just because of the cut direction.Let alone you forget to change the cut direction back from climb to convintial only to load a sheet of that import stuff. I think that ever one has done that. I dont know about the import stuff you guyes get but a climb cut is no pretty.
