FS#2665 - Nesting show solutions incomplete
QCAD/CAM 3.32.2 / Qt 6.6.0 / macOS arm64 / cocoa
After Nesting multiple solutions are shown in the table. Buts the graphical position of the objects are shown incomplete, so it is hard to decide the best choice.
1) screen shot showing the table and the graphics incomplete.
2) screen shot after choosing show the complete nesting result.
3) QCAD file where I applied nesting

Hi,
I think that the preview only shows a limited amount of details of the arranged parts and does not distinguish between the outer contour, voids and other details.
Probably to speed things up because in the background it may still be busy with finding a better arrangement.
Your parts have no voids that can serve to place other parts in.
For example Block 'LaserBoxCap' has a single polyline as outer contour and 5088 line segments that I presume to be folding cuts.
What if you place these internal details on a dedicated (sub-) layer and hide that while Nesting?

Hi,
I tried your proposal of placing the internal details on a hided sublayer.
It did not solve the problem, the contour did not appear. See attached screenshots.
Best regards

Hi,
Different source, not comparable by picture.
Another limitation can be the number of previewed entities by preference.
See menu Edit .. Application Preferences .. Graphics View .. Appearance .. Number of preview entities
