Are you using the \"group\" function in ecabs? As far as I understand it, whichever order you enter the fronts in the grouping function, that is the order that they will be grouped in when nesting. In other words, make sure you \"add to group\" front 1,2, then 3.
Otherwise, if you are not using the \"group\" function in ecabs, there is no way for the controller to know that they should be kept together in any order.

Re: Grouping Parts
I am having the same problem Tim is having, but to elaborate, I HAVE checked the way i have grouped the parts meaning i have entered them in 1, 2, 3. The ecabinet software tells me it is grouped properly, the nesting diagram proves so. I take it out to the CNC and it nests out there 1, 3, 2.
I might add that other operators in the past have had problems with grouping 3 parts. Not 2 or 4 but just 3.
ANY SUGGESTIONS??
