I recently use the nesting function but it could not be able to fit all pieces.
I enclose the source drawing and the solution drawing I found without nesting function.
Am I doing something wrong?

Re: Nesting unable to fit all pieces
Please understand that the nesting algorithm is not a puzzle-solver. It simply tries to guess how pieces might fit best. It is absolutely possible that you might find a better solution by manually placing pieces. If you spend enough time doing so, that's even very likely.
Nesting is mainly useful in cases where finding a solution manually is not feasible (e.g. large number of small irregular pieces).

Hi,
From what I can see ... and have to deduct from that.
Sheet = 3000x1000 (the largest open contour)
16 pieces to nest.
All 16 are fitted on the sheet.

Re: Nesting unable to fit all pieces
This means I made some mistake using the nesting function.
But I was lucky I could solve it manually otherwise I needed another slab 3000x1000 of Laminam porcelain gres.
The drawing was not complete, there were 3 rectangulare holes missing, necessary for other 4 pieces (the pieces were 20 really), because i was not sure how this could behaive with nesting function, anyway here is the final result:
