Add Designs: FrameShop Nesting Editor

Add Designs to the Layout

Add Designs to the Layout

Add Designs to the Layout allows you to load saved designs into the current Nesting layout.

Click on the Load Design button.

The Add Designs screen opens up, displaying the previously saved designs. 

Select the desired designs by holding down the CTRL key and clicking on each design. 

See Design Thumbnails to see how to view the design thumbnails instead of the design name.

Click OK.

Select the desired quantities to load in the Select Design Quantities screen.

Click OK.

The designs are loaded into Nesting, stacked on top of each other in the lower left corner.  

NOTE: A maximum of only six layers/SKUs is available. When you load a design containing SKUs, each SKU will be assigned to a layer. Therefore, if you load a combination of mats that contain more than six different SKUs, you will have to reduce the number of designs loaded until only six layers/SKUs maximum is loaded.

See Unable to Add One or More Design Layers for more information.

Click on the background to unselect the group of openings then click and drag each opening to arrange the designs as desired.  

Each design is labeled with the design name.

Remember to move the openings on the other layers as well.

Optionally, Sync the Layers Across Sheets.
