Using Irregular shaped sheets

[erniek]

When using the irregular left over sheets, they don't get oriented the way that they appear on the display. The 0,0 corner ends up somewhere along the far edge of the table, with X=97 and Y=the maxiumum width of the irregular sheet. It would make more sense to have the straight edge along the outside edge of the table. Also the software isn't keeping a list of the fall-off parts. I remember an earlier version did.

One of the next versions will have the graphic display more closely match what you cut. In other words, the parts will nest and cut from the selected corner, but may not display the nest from that same corner. You can rotate the off falls to get rid of a dogleg or other irregular shape.

I havent used v15 for this so cant tell if it loses the sheets, but earlier versions kept track of them well.

The irregular sheet has to be rotated 180 degrees to be cut properly.
