Marker:Save Current Nesting and Update Quantity

From OptiTexHelpEn

Jump to: navigation, search

The Save Current Nesting command is used when it is necessary to divide one single order into several markers. Use it whenever the entire order cannot be cut out of one single marker table. A spreading table that isn't long enough, fabric that sold in sheets or material that came in specific size - are few of the reason to use this command.
The marker limit is defined in the Marker Definitions command in the Marker menu.
