Working with the jobs list (or jobs database)

In Smart1DCutting sources, parts and cutting layout files are grouped into jobs (or projects). All files belonging to a job are automatically loaded when that job is selected in the jobs list.

The Jobs List allows you to easily manage your projects and provides an efficient way of accessing the jobs data when working in network mode. This way, users from different workstations can work on the same job in the same time but maintaining a single copy of the job and stock files on the server.

To define a new job, right click on the jobs grid and select "Add new". Or you can alternatively use the "Insert" key or the button from the buttons bar.

To change a job name or description, double click on the description field to switch it to edit mode or just type the new value and press [Enter] to validate.

Alternatively, you can edit job details by clicking the edit button on the left of the job name.



To delete a job, select it first, then right click on the Jobs grid and select "Delete". Or you can alternatively use the "CTRL + Del" key combination or the button from the buttons bar.

To save a job from the jobs list to a job file, first select the desired job in the grid then go to "File -> Save job as...". Job files can be loaded in the "Job files" section using the "File -> Open job..." menu function.
