Frenquently Asked Questions :
{slider • Quel genre de problème StackBuilder va-t-il m'aider à résoudre ?}
StackBuilder is aimed at solving homogeneous stacking problems, which means it can ONLY solve problems where a single item (box/case) is involved.
Also, for the moment, it builds solutions using homogeneous layers in which the vertical axis remains the same. It can not provide solutions in which a "turned" case is used to fill remaining space.
