Hope you're not getting tired of my posts... guess it's the beta tester in me that is constantly on the lookout for software improvements.
Anyway...
Seems to me that recently I've been seeing more unefficient part placement in Control Nesting. Or at least, I have frequently been able to make better use of my material than what the automatic nesting suggests.
For example, Automatic Nesting suggested the following part placement for a nest I did today. Obviously not the most efficient way, right?
So I went to Manual Mode, bumped a few parts around, and very easily made room for those last three parts on the 1st sheet. Like so: I was just wondering how easy it would be to get Control Nesting to consider multiple possibilities when optimizing part placement, and use whichever variation uses the smallest sheet count?
Just my thought for the day.
Not complaining. Just thinking out loud.
