Modular nesting origin and stacking direction

Modular nesting origin and stacking direction

The origin or zero point for the nesting can be set to any of the 2 corners.  This allows the end-user of e.g. flatbed printers with different origin points to match their Nesting in Layout. 
The Stacking methods will start from the default origin:
      for Flatbed: Bottom Right 
      for Roll-to-toll:  Top Left.

Available from V6.8.0 onwards.

Setting origin and stacking

For Flatbed printer: 

The default origin for a flatbed is Bottom Right in Layout.  Consequently, the stacking algorithm starts from the bottom right origin point. 
Example below:  source is table , alignment option is set to Bottom right and stacking is per Job Order. 



For Roll printers

Origin point is Top Left and stacking starts from there. 
Example below:  Roll with origin is Left Top with Job Order stacking method
