Hi,
I am developing OpenNest to achieve better packing efficiency.
Could you share datasets in Rhino (simple geometries, not Grasshopper scripts), specifically:
I’m particularly interested in the cases that are the most problematic or difficult to achieve good nesting efficiency with.
I would love to receive this information to train a model to capture border cases.
Thank you!
Nice @Petras_Vestartas, I would like to see the result of this.
Hi @Petras_Vestartas
I will send you this in DM, 135 pieces of Pat Def table
I didn’t go too deep in Open Nest with this one as I have a very good packing, but I’ll have new jobs and no more access to MagPie. For this type of geometry I began to make some simplification tools (suppress some holes, offset 2 times to smooth …).
I have a side request that has nothing to deal with nesting complexity 
when a Time in seconds is supplied to the OpenNest2 → Nest Options component, at the start of the nesting an external window pops-up and asks to confirm that value (or insert a different one)
I sort of understand the reason why it’s designed like that, but I would love an option to bypass that window (I don’t know… an option that could be activated in the right click menu?)
the reason I’m asking for this is: I’m experimenting with Anemone to supply seeds to OpenNest, in such a way to generate dozens of nesting solutions, and evaluating the best one afterwards
having that window popping up at each Anemone Loop doesn’t allow anything different from Time=0, which is a single Nesting iteration, otherwise at each Loop cycle you should confirm the nesting time
I know it’s stupid, but if this window-bypass is something simple to implement I’d really love to play without it!
Thanks for noting this, yes it is only user interface option. I will change this. At the moment it is only like that.
Good to know also that you dealing with multiple seeds to explore options.
