Open Nest Mirror Problem

Hi everyone,

I’m working on this ceiling installation and I’m using Open Nest to generate the laser cutting sheets for it, It’s a fantastic plugin (thanks @Petras1 @Petras_Vestartas ). My problem came when we noticed that some of the unrolled elements are mirrors and others are not. Despite their normals and backfaces being oriented in the same direction. This is causing so many problems on site, and I would highly appreciate any kind of help in this matter. Even if it’s a hint. Thanks a lot. Attached images below for reference. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

To orient to a correct orientation you need to give at least 3 points to track the orientation after unrolling, then you can reorient again:
