Re: Chamfer (Two Distances)
Yeah that's pretty weird. You definitely can't flip individual chamfers, but I also can't figure out the logic behind why some are one way vs the other. It seems to depend on common surfaces shared by multiple edges and the edge selection order. In the meantime, you can add multiple chamfers, but I know that's not the most elegant solution.

Auto Layout updated to V3.1: oriented parts!
Added an option per some forum requests to allow specified orientation of parts. Parts will still need to be of equal thickness, but for all parts of a given thickness selecting a face as a "face to orient" will ensure that face is nested facing downwards, allowing for 2.5- or 3-axis machining on a router. All parts without a selected face to orient will be nested with the largest face down. This is a slight modification from the previous operation of this feature to facilitate use without too many manual selections when making routed parts. If the largest-face-upwards functionality is critical you may wish to keep this feature at its previous version.Also fixed a small bug in the bin-packing algorithm, which in certain unfortunate combinations of parts could lead to part spacing constraints being violated.
