Help with layers and new parts

[sheetcamCS2]

@finyuk2005

After adding a new part, is it not at all possible to move say, the holes/inside offset of that new part, to an already created layer?

its is possible, see Mode / ‘Edit contours’.

@finyuk2005

In otherwards, do I have to create a layer and move the hole to it for every single individual part?

no you don’t. Sheetcam will alternate outside vs. inside kerf offset toopaths for shapes/contours on the same Layer. The Operation offset style you select is in reference to the outer most contour(s) of the Layer, then toolpaths alternate to the other side of the inner contours automatically.

was trying to keep a “job” going for a sheet of 10mm steel, add parts i need to cut out, and un-tick/disable the parts as i cut them out, so I can keep track of where to align the new parts if that makes sense.

that’s a good idea. Should not be problem to do that.
