Same question for me , tnx. Maybe it's okay also an explanation of what's the idea behind having a "infinite length" container ;)

Hey guys,

the pallet length is passed as the y param of the various order lengths.

The infinite container length is caused by the initial requirement. The requirement is meant as an abstract approach of finding optimal good compositions and their visualization. The "cutting" or separation into fitting container lengths is part of later calculations. In general the tool is designed for visualization. The algorithms for calculation are currently not that sophisticated as needed for serious decisions.
