Frequently asked questions

What is the minimum input required ?

The two basic input requirements are Coil and Parts. Every Coil requires an ID (this has to be unique), Size (Length) and Quantity. Similarly parts require an ID (has to be unique), Size (Length) and Quantity.

Does the ID of the Coil/Part have to be numeric ?

The ID of the Coils and parts can be made of any alphanumeric characters. Only keep in mind that the ID's have to be unique.

In what units are the sizes of the Coils and parts input ? Can I use INCHES ?

You can select your preferred units using the TOOLS->Unit Settings Menu. 

Thought the entire Coil is not used, I am getting the utilization as 100 % Why ? 

Check if the "Allow Offcut" setting is ON. Probably, the remaining piece is larger than the minimum offcut size. In such a case the remaining piece is NOT considered as waste. 

Help, I seem to have lost the TOOLBAR ? 

Go to the View->Toolbar menu, and ensure that the toolbar is checked.
