Working on new version of CutMaster with an optimized parts distribution.
You can now set a sliding window which forces cabinet parts to complete machining in cabinet number order.With total disregard to cabinet number priority the tightest packing is 34 sheets for 32 cabinets with 3 drawer parts on sheet 34.
When honoring cabinet number priority (in this case the sliding window is set to we still only require 34 sheets but there are now 13 parts on sheet 34.
Here is the analysis of the 32 cabinets and their parts and the distribution of those parts onto sheets of material

Just wanted to thank Garry for some of the recent updates! Have wanted to for some time and just did not get around to it, apologies for not doing so sooner!
Not sure when it happened but always had to correct for drawer height in CutMaster in CabMaker drawers tab if they were to sit on drawer bottoms and noticed that no longer needs to be corrected for. Also In CutMaster had to add in Part Number as part of Part Name so it would show on the cutting layout diagram to make for easier location of parts in part listing when cutting pieces on table saw. Part number became part of the Layout display and saves me lots of time adding this to cabinet name.
Garry has always been great at assisting with any questions and I find he responds in very short order.
Thanks Garry!

Just installed the latest version. But once I try to run for first time the login dialogbox appears and ask for "hardware". If i use the ID and password registered at website but "hardware" field blamk. Sketchup freezes and the only way to starover is ctl+alt+del and kill the process.
Why?
