I'm finding that on cabinets from a batch, with greater than 1, that the Link is only nesting/cutting parts for 1 cabinet. I've reported to Thermwood, but is anyone else getting the same result?

Notice the cabinet quantity vs. part quantity in screenshot from 'Load' area of Link.

Cant say that Ive seen that one. The last job with multiples from a batch was in March and they cut fine. Post any fixes, if you could

Gary,

I've cut a fair amount of multiples and had never had an issue until the other day. Now everything I enter as a multiple, gets nested/cut as just 1.

I've resorted to entering multiples as duplicate (or slightly altered duplicate) items so that all cabinet quantities are equal to 1.

Significant bug. Will let you know what/if I hear from TWD.

I assume you are using V18. have you tried to see if the error exists in V 16 or 17?

Have you tried [select > R click] and change quantities in the load screen?

Gary,

Running v18, but it does happen with V.17. I don't think that it used to happen with v.17. I think it may be related to the newer versions of Ecabinets.

[select > R click], does work to change the quantity. I didn't know that that feature existed, but that will work in the meantime. Thanks.

From Thermwood:

'We will have this resolved with the next release of the Link. For now, you can change the number beside each part to 2 to get by. Also it seems that on this export, I can set the top level Qty to 3 and it will adjust the lower numbers to 2.'
