Serialized breps to nesting

Grasshopper OpenNest

@Petras_Vestartas @inno

Hello

This is my starting point. But since im a beginner in grasshopper. i have two problems: First how to i get all the breps on the cplane. i saw there was a pack component but i have no idea how to use it. Then i need to give all the objects serial numbers. it would be amazing to do it so that the script can see the same objects and gives them the same serial number.

Then i need to do the nesting with the serialized geometry. This is how far ive gotten:

I created this serializing script:

help pls :smiley:

  1. Get a largest face of each brep
  2. Use pack component to orient breps by the largest face plane
  3. Extract from the faces outlines and input them to geometry input, use brep solids as attributes

Thanks so much for your plugin. I built this with the help of Raven. It does the nesting and also gives a serial number to all the parts. Also bakes that serial number to rhino obects.

Any ide how can i turn off the offset ?

looks like Offset is determined by this slider:

maybe set it to zero?

That gives the distance between parts, so i need it to be minimum 5. But i don’t need the curves to be visble…

I think the preview with Offset is generated by the OpenNest Geometry component?
