Sketchup Make & Cutlist Question - David Stone - 08-19-2022

I have no idea how to use this.  I'm designing a pretty simple set of cabinets.  Three carcasses, each with two uprights, a bottom and two stretchers.
I just want to see how to lay it out on sheets of plywood.

I'm using Sketchup Make, running Cutlist 4.1 extension. It keeps laying out my sheet parts on boards.  I can't figure out how to tell it to do the layout on sheets.

Never mind.  Figured it out.

So what did you do?

You have to add the word plywood, MDF, ply, etc. in the name of the component for CutList to know it's a sheet good component.  It will then lay it out on the sheet good size of your choosing, separately from your lumber components.

Thanks. Sounds like me setting a program for my cnc and forgetting where my datum is!
