Hi @Omcarve
You’re right — the nesting option in LightBurn does sometimes lead to overlaps. That’s because the Nest Selected command hands your shapes off to SVGnest, which runs outside of LightBurn. The overlap behaviour comes from SVGnest itself, and isn’t something we can directly adjust in LightBurn.
If you want to dig further, the SVGnest project has an active GitHub, you can raise issues or check for tips (check the page’s FAQ)
or even contact Jack directly http://jack.works/
On the LightBurn side, the only thing that helps is making sure shapes are as clean as possible before sending them over (no duplicate lines, minimal nodes). Beyond that, the nesting logic is all SVGnest’s.
