Bug Description

A nesting feature to allow multiple shapes to be brought in and nested together for most efficient use of material would be very helpful in GCodeTools. It would be useful in plasma cutting, laser cutting, vinyl cutting, routing, etc.

Thanks - haven't tried it yet, but it looks like a great tool. Together with Inkscape/GCodeTool, it seems like it would provide a full plasma cutting CAM that rivals the commercial packages.
