Is there a setting to help minimize material waste by getting everything close together before cutting? Such as the system turning the cuts to move then closer to have less waste.
There are programs you can use before bringing your artwork into the Glowforge such as deepnest.
Thanks. I thought there was something within the glowforge url before you clicked print.
No, you will need to manually move your file items if you are doing this within the interface.
It’s a good idea and I hope they add a nesting function to the app in the future
Generally nesting doesn’t save that much unless your manual placement is really out there, but if it’s really out there deepnest.io is mentioned as a go-to. Keep in mind it does not track grain direction so if that matters you’ll need to take care of that yourself!
It has a setting to avoid rotation.
Yes. That does still require that you know which pieces need to go which way
