Offfall setting in CN

[Jeremy Schiffer]

I've been having issues for the past few months with CN (6.07 on THM desktop) locking up when I have a job nested and change the offfall setting (to either None or Cut Full Perimeter.)

Just installed CN 6.08, and it no longer locks up when I change the offfall setting. However, it's not acting right: If offfall is turned off when I nest a job, there will be no offfall in the nest, as expected. If I turn offfall on, the offfall appears in the nest, as expected. But if I then turn the offfall off again, it won't go away, it stays on. Anyone else having this?

I just tried that no issues. are you sure its not a settings grouping issue? try with ignore settings grouping checked off

Are you Nesting/Optimizing and THEN changing the settings. If so, perhaps try re-nesting. (??)

I'm linking a video that makes it more clear (I hope)... but in a nutshell, I can set offfall to "None" and nest it, then turn Offfall on (Cut Full Perimeter) just fine. But I cannot then turn it back to "None" without needing to re-nest it.

Okay. Then it may be that the switch back to NONE is not triggering an automatic re-nest. I am sure that this should be an easy one for the Control Nesting team.

* Just wonder why you would be flipping back and forth between the setting though. (Not that you should not be able to.)

The reason I flip back and forth is to save expensive labels. I print the sheets including the offfall, and then turn the offfall off to print the labels, because we don't label our offfall, since we have it cut into rectangles. (Speaking of, that feature has a couple issues as well, but that will be for another post...)
