Compact Arrangement

You can use the Compact Arrangement option when you want to move pieces that were nested in order to find a better place for them. This algorithm basically shakes the nested results and moves pieces where there is open area.

Note: This algorithm is automatically included in Nest Pro, so you do not need to access it manually if you have a Nest Pro license.

To use the Compact Arrangement option:

1. Open the Marker file.

2. Nest the pieces using manual nesting.
   
   

3. From the main menu, go to Nesting > Special Auto Nesting > Compact Arrangement.
   
   Here you can see the pieces were rearranged a bit to make use of extra space:
