5.8.1 Triangle Nest
This tool nests the parts into the smallest possible rectangle. For example two triangles are nested so that their sides are facing each
other. This tool works well with triangles and that’s where the name comes.
5.8.2 MultiNest
MultiNest nests all shapes automatically. If shapes do not fit on the current plate, MultiNest creates new copies of the current plate
and continues nesting on them until all the shapes are nested.
