Sheet List
Use the Sheet Data tab of the Create Nesting Job dialog to add sheet(s) and set the parameters for sheet(s) in which parts will be nested.
The Sheet List grid is displayed in the Sheet Data tab.
In the Create Nesting Job dialog, when you click on the Sheet Data tab, the Sheet List is initially empty. The sheet parameters including the dimensions of the sheet in which the part(s) will be nested need to be defined before a sheet can be added to the Sheet List. Define the sheet parameters and Sheet size and then click 'Add Sheet' to add a sheet to the Sheet List.
Once the sheet(s) are added, the Sheet List displays the sheets in which parts listed in the part list will be nested. Sheet parameters are also displayed in the grid. The sheet parameters displayed in the Sheet list can be edited.
The sheet parameters displayed in the grid include:

If a Custom Size sheet is added to the Sheet List, all its parameters can be edited in the Sheet List.
If a sheet of type 'DXF' is added, then its parameter of 'Thickness', 'Quantity', 'Material', 'Grain Direction' and 'Assembly template' can be edited in the Sheet List. The parameter 'Sheet name' cannot be edited. The parameters of Length and Width are not applicable to such a sheet.
