This is great thank you. All good! I didn’t realise this was how it worked.

Hi John,

I am not having that problem, it seems to be nesting all of the components on my end.

Is OptiNest duplicating sheets? Confirm your sheet list, for example: is it telling you that sheet 3 may have a quantity of 2? Sometimes OptiNest will look as though there is only 1 sheet but tell you it needs to be run twice. See the following image:

Let me know how you go.

Isaac

I have been working on this project, when running the optimization through OptiNest it doesn’t show any missing parts, however it is missing a back panel and a gable for one of the cabinets. I have tried putting the stock to ‘unlimited’ and still the same result. Any help with this would be amazing
