The Oversize Check dialog lets you configure the Fabrication products to check parts in a job against default sheet sizes and sheets in stock and determine how the oversized part is fitted.
Check for Oversize at Take-Off / Check for Oversize before Nesting: With either of these options checked, the pattern at takeoff and / or prior to nesting is checked against the sheet sizes set up in Materials.
Preferred Part Split at: This option can be set to either Maximum Sheet Size or Equal Part Sizes.
Maximum Sheet Size: This option splits the pattern development so that the largest possible size can be placed onto the sheet.
Equal Part Sizes: This option splits the pattern development into two or more equally-sized developments.
Directional: This option lets the user specify where the part will be split, whether its Vertical or Horizontal, Top, Bottom, Left, or Right.
Minimum Part Size: The value will set a minimum size for the development when the option Maximum Sheet Size is enabled. This value will then limit the size of the split that the program will create when automatically nesting.
