Ability to move panels in an optimized lay-out
There is a similar 2017 post requesting the same feature for a different reason. I chose MaxCut because I'm pretty good at resizing and repositioning panels on my own -- good enough that I was able to devise a tricky test for cut list optimizers. (Of course, I am slow compared to software.) MaxCut is the only program I've tried so far that didn't fail my test. Even so, there are times when I just want to get MaxCut pointed in the right direction by moving a panel from one layout to another and having MaxCut work the problem from there. For me, this is all about saving money on sheet goods -- with 4x8 sheets of 18mm Baltic Birch selling for nearly $200 in my area. Today I used MaxCut and information-directed choices to eliminate the need for two Baltic birch sheets out of an eight-sheet project. It took about an hour. Anything you can do to enable MaxCut to do that kind work easier, better, faster would be a boon.
