How to Use the Auto-Nest Tool in Supacolor's Gang Sheet Builder

When you've loaded up a gang sheet with multiple designs, the placement doesn't always end up as efficient as it could be. Gaps between designs waste printable space, and uneven spacing makes cutting harder than it needs to be.

The Auto-Nest Tool solves this automatically. With one click, it rearranges everything on your gang sheet to minimize wasted space and make cutting cleaner — no manual repositioning required.

WHEN TO USE IT

Auto-Nest works best after you've added all your art to the gang sheet and are ready to finalize the layout. Think of it as the last step before you review and submit — a final optimization pass that the builder handles for you.

HOW TO USE AUTO-NEST

Once your gang sheet is fully loaded with all your designs, locate and click the Auto-Nest function in the builder.

The tool will automatically analyze the current placement of every design on your sheet and rearrange them to:

→ Reduce the gaps between designs
→ Maximize use of the full sheet size
→ Create cleaner, more consistent spacing for easier cutting

THE RESULT

After Auto-Nest runs, you'll see your designs repositioned for optimal efficiency. The tighter layout means more usable space on the sheet and less wasted material — which matters both for the cost of your order and the ease of cutting when your transfers arrive

That's all there is to it. Auto-Nest does in seconds what would take several minutes of manual repositioning, and it consistently produces a tighter, more organized result.
