What's New in CutList Plus fx
Free iPhone Companion App
Take projects you have created on your computer and export them for loading onto your Apple device using iTunes File Sharing.
This lets you view your cutting diagrams, parts and bill of materials while in your workshop or at the lumber dealer.
Checkboxes allow you to keep track of which diagrams have been cut, which materials have been purchased, and which parts are finished.
The free viewer app does not edit or re-optimize. (It is only a viewer.)
Multi-Core Enabled
Take full advantage of parallel processing on multi-core processors, resulting in a significant improvement in optimization times.
Users on single-core machines will also see some improvement, although not as dramatic.
This is an essential feature for anyone who has already invested in a PC with multi-core processors. It comes standard in all Editions of CutList Plus fx.
Multi-User
Several people can share a single raw materials file over a local network, using the Gold or Platinum Editions.
When this feature is turned on, a shared raw materials file will be stored on a network folder. CutList Plus will keep local copies of this file on each person’s PC,
enabling you to keep working even when not connected to the network.
CutList Plus will keep things synchronized, making sure your raw materials edits are posted to the shared file, as well as keeping you up to date with changes made by your co-workers.
The program will also detect conflicts and help you resolve them (for example, when two people make conflicting changes at the same time).
You'll need a separate license for each PC you install the program on. Site licenses are also available.
Jump from Part to Diagram
Diagram numbers are now displayed right on the parts list. Just hit F3 to jump directly to the diagram containing the selected part. Use F3 again to move to the next diagram for that part.
Import Raw Materials
Raw materials sizes, costs and other information can be imported from a csv file. The csv file must be
formatted for automated processing (rather than being set up for human viewing). Many options are available to customize
how the imported information is merged into your existing database.
Other Enhancements
Show slice sizes on diagrams as offsets from the origin, to help set your saw fence.
Options to print four diagrams per page.
You can now include an image on the project cover page. Use this to show a photo of your finished project, or to add your business logo to the printout.
