Version 1.2.2.5
Jul 29, 2026
A FastNesting menu on the Rhino menu bar covers Nesting, Settings, Group Edit, Show 3D Piece Numbers, Clean, and License—the same commands as the docs Command reference. Clearer warnings when panel faces are not planar (warped or bowed solids), so odd length and width readings are easier to catch before nesting. A Settings option groups parts by Length/Width/Thickness after display rounding—the same precision as Piece Namer—and is on by default. Flexible edgeband now supports Custom thickness like rigid. Panel Parameters uses Part Oversize labels aligned with report Oversize (OL/OW). Optional edgebanding contingency lets you add an extra percent to estimated F/R length when you need margin. PDF PARTS and PANELS SUMMARY tables use the same grid style as the cut list.
Version 1.2.2
Jul 20, 2026
FastNesting now runs on Rhino 9 WIP, so you can keep nesting while you explore the next Rhino. Cut-list reports let you choose which columns appear, so PDF and Excel stay focused on what your shop actually uses. Stickers can include a barcode for quicker identification on the floor, and PRO users can add optional Notes on parts—turned off by default in Settings—when they need job or shop comments. Dialogs and themes are clearer across Settings, license, and everyday workflow screens. Machining drawings follow your model more closely on tricky outlines, channels, and organic shapes, while Side A, Side B, and X-ray keep working as you already know them.
Version 1.2.0
Jun 10, 2026
A new Auto option (grain off) tries more layouts and keeps the best, with live progress you can stop with Esc. Mult lets you nest more copies without duplicating parts in Rhino, and Show3DPieceNumbers_FastNesting jumps to any source solid by its cut-list number. Machining is read in 2D for face and back, and parts with the same size but different machining can get distinct numbers. Dialogs and messages are refreshed, new Free users get a welcome, and PRO seat activation can now free up a machine in the same flow, with a computer alias on each machine for support.
Version 1.1.4
May 10, 2026
Edgeband presets can use 0 mm (rigid and flexible) so you keep BOM and totals without shrinking finished nest sizes. Machining is easier to read with Side A / Side B and X-ray modes; mirrored parts no longer mirror the wrong 2D. Pro users can optionally add piece-number dots on source 3D solids from Settings after nesting. Overall nesting, drawing, and part-list workflows are smoother with fewer geometry surprises.
Version 1.1.3
Apr 28, 2026
Improves nesting consistency in demanding layouts, adds stronger 2D machining drawing parity between Rhino and PDF, refines report regeneration, improves macOS readability, and grants eligible users a fresh 10 calendar day PRO trial.
Version 1.1.2
Feb 22, 2026
Settings now centralize panel parameters and units—no need to set them every time you launch. New features: panel size per material (PRO), cut ruler at the bottom of each panel, estimated weight in reports (PRO), and roughing margin per piece (PRO). New commands: Settings_FastNesting and Clean_FastNesting. Improvements: updated UI in Settings and Panel Parameters, better report organization, and improved nesting algorithm with the option Veneer match by Group (prioritizes keeping parts from the same assembly close together).
