Multiple part toolpath sequence

Problems and questions
1

I’m not sure how to do this. I have three parts in one job. Each part has three operations. drill, inside profile and outside profile. I want to drill all three parts, then cut the inside profile on all three, then the outside profile on all three. What’s happening is that it wants to complete part one then go on the part two then on to part three.

Is there a way to change the order? Something like assigning each of the 9 operations a sequence number? As an alternative, I can draw all three parts in CAD then SC treats them as one part, but it would be better to be able to do it all in SC and use the nesting features.

Thanks

Go to Options->job options->nesting. If you are using different tools for the drilling, inside offset and outside offset then you can just select ‘Minimise tool changes’ and it will do the rest automatically. Otherwise select ‘Manual optimisation’ and manually drag the operations up and down the list.
