Appearance
Logistics
The Logistics view provides an overview of material requirements across your constructibles, helping you track which parts are available and which still need to be prepared.
Layout
The logistics interface has three panels:
- Left panel — Branch selection (plates or profiles) and size filters.
- Center panel — Material inventory table grouped by zone.
- Right panel — Detailed information for the selected item.
Material Tracking
The table shows each material part needed for production, organized by:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Zone | The structural area in the design where this part is used. |
| Reference | Material identification code. |
| Total count | Total number of this part needed across all constructibles. |
| Per constructible | Breakdown showing how many are needed for each assembly/module. |
| Dimensions | Width × Length (for plates) or profile dimensions. |
| Ready parts | How many have been prepared and are available. |
Filtering
- Branch — Switch between viewing plate materials or profile materials.
- Size — Filter to a specific material size (dimensional variant).
Marking Parts Ready
You can update the "ready parts" count for each material to track preparation progress:
- Click on a cell to edit the ready count.
- Use the All parts ready button to quickly mark all parts as available.
Part Drawings
When a part is selected, the right panel shows its drawings — combined, front, top, left and section views — for quick reference on the workshop floor.
Only views that show real features (cutouts, holes, bevels, non-rectangular profiles) are produced. If a particular view would just be a plain rectangle, it's skipped — the dimensions in the table already convey that. A part with no features at all gets no drawings.
For wood parts that aren't straight prisms (parts with cutouts, bevels or mitres), an extra 3D button appears next to the drawing views. Clicking it opens the isolated part in an interactive 3D viewer, so any feature that's hard to read on a 2D drawing can be inspected directly. The button only shows up when this 3D model is available.
Connection to Other Features
- Material requirements are derived from the designs and their BoM data.
- The Delivery & Racks feature uses the logistics data to plan how completed assemblies are loaded for transport.
- Reports can generate Bills of Materials for ordering the materials tracked here.
