There is a few gaps in the drawing, I was using Solidworks which has a sketch check tool, there was 8 errors - slight gaps or overlap
Try this file.

If your numbers refer to hole diameter, and Les says the lowest feed rate applicable to the feature is used, then you could have a single "hole rule", with multiple rule sets inside for each diameter. Just had a look at that idea, it does work like you say on diameter, good thinking! Ther...

Nice one I will try that,, cheers

Ah so maybe there was something, I see it listed in the development version recent change list, many thanks, it did crop up again since.

Ah sorry ignore that, opened another job using same toolset/rules and it's ok now

Just noticed this one this morning, I sometimes need to add a little slowdown at the cross over of the lead in to get the part to drop out when cutting 12mm on my machine, the rules are great for this. However I noticed adding loops on corners seems to stop the 50% reduced feedrate rule from running...

Mynesting is very good - http://www.sheetcam.com/plugins

Nice one if you can Les! I wasn't expecting that

I have noticed the slowdowns in cut rules don't seem to be accounted for in the job report, but someone the other day pointed out to me in simulation mode the seconds timer that gives accurate run time, speeded up to 5000% or so it works great.

That's a new trick I learned there, cheers for that, that will help a lot. If they are locked, picking off parts from the parts list works well. Many thanks. If you have a lot of parts and only want to cut a few, drag-select to select all parts then hold the <ctrl> key and select the parts you want ...

Maybe should have said this is for plasma.

Thanks Les, they would be separate part drawings. That's the way I have been doing it disable parts, all or part and duplicates, that does the trick. I was wondering if there was another way though, maybe not, the ideal way, not sure if it would be possible is if you could select parts with nest too...

Thanks Steve, I will look into that, thought I was getting closer to finding most of the features in sheetcam, but that's one I haven't tried yet.
Cheers

Is it possible to just run the processor on just selected parts?
It would be really handy if that was possible, I quite often just like to run a row across the sheet or just certain parts.
I am doing it by disabling parts, it quite time consuming though.
Thanks
Sean

Yes I had that happening to me as well Dave but using the 11D post, I gave up and went back to my original MP3000-DTHCII-DCC+scriber6 post, thought it was just something I was doing wrong so I left it alone.
