Cut Inner Shapes First ¶Īs the name implies, if there is an object within another object, and both are being cut, it will cut out the inside object before the outside one. These optimizations are applied to each cutting set of outputs from the above ordering as a set. If you choose Order By Priority, the cut planner will apply all remaining optimizations to the objects with the highest priority (Assigned in the Shape Properties Window) first, then the next lowest and so on. Objects not part of a group are treated as being in a group together. If you choose Order By groups the cut planner will apply all remaining optimizations to all the objects in a root-level group, then the next Grouped object, and so on. If you choose Order By Layer, the cut planner will apply all remaining optimizations to the first layer, then the second layer, and so on. Each resulting set is then optimized with the additional options (like inner shapes first, reduce travel moves, etc). This is good for doing large projects where you want an entire multi-layer item to complete before moving on to the next, in case you have to interrupt the project, or something goes wrong.Įach 'Order By' option produces a set of outputs that is then fed into the next option (if any), and so on. If you order by groups first, then by layers, the list of shapes will be first split by root-level groups, then the shapes within each set will ordered by layer, and so on. If you order by layer, then groups, the list of shapes will be split into lists by layer first, then those lists will be sorted by group, and finally, the remaining optimizations will be applied. As well you can use a combination of these three choices in any order you wish. You have a choice of Layer, Groups or Priority.
You can select what the initial ordering parameters will be. The settings are displayed in this dialog (and the defaults are shown here):
After selecting your choices in the Cut Planner, use the Preview (Alt-P) to see how your choices have impacted things by using the slider at the bottom of the window.Īccess these settings by pressing the Optimization Settings button shown here: If you have "Order by Layer" as the only entry in the list at the top (the default), it will behave the way you're used to. The cut planner gives you a great deal of control over the ordering of your cuts - you can let LightBurn try to choose the best path for you, order it piece by piece yourself, or somewhere in between.
