My open nest scripting doesnt work anymore

i use rhino 7 and the open nest scripting for lasercutting. This used to work previous year but doesnt anymore. I cant figure out how to fix this. Can someone help please?

Attach your file and change the error language (to English) so community can help

I’m not sure because you didn’t attach your .gh , but I guess there is something wrong with the Sheet input , I recommend you to use OpenNest 2 instead .These sheet components are from OpenNest 2 .

Not internalized

how do i fix this?

Help Us Help You:


Internalize data

i internalised both the paper model and the paper, still doesnt work, same error

I meant Internalize the file and send it again on forum , so I can have access to geometries .

Sorry, i read the “help us help you” and i still dont understand. Do you want me to cut everything left from the error out with the grouping and then internalising? I cant find where i can internalise the entire file. Im a student, sorry if im not understanding :slight_smile:

Send a rhino file and grasshopper would be simpler :wink:

the surfaces (paper model) should be unrolled and placed efficiently in the box (paper) and the sliders in the file should change the arrangment. now it only unrolls them and overlaps them all at (0,0,0)

Thank you so much! It runs like it used to now :smiley:

okay so turns out it does work but only when the “paper” is really big, else it only uses half of the “paper” like this:

the biggest piece that should fit therefore also doesnt fit.

I checked your .3dm . Looks like your sheet curve is not closed (3 edges are joined and the top edge is separate from others ) , so you don’t have a rectangular sheet . You will have your desired sheet after joining them .

Cheers !
