Boxes

The box list works the same way in every wizard. Here is what each field means and which rotations you can allow.

Adding Boxes

Add boxes individually using the form, or import multiple boxes at once using an Excel file.

Box Fields

label--Optional text label displayed on the box in the 3D viewer (max 40 characters)

allowedRotationsSpin flat (Z), tip onto a side (X, Y)How the box may be turned to make it fit. Z keeps the box upright and only gives it a quarter turn. X and Y lay the box onto a side; useful for long or flat items. Fragile goods usually keep Z only, so they always stay upright. Untick every option to keep the box exactly as entered.
Z: spin flat, stays upright
X: tip onto a side
Y: tip onto the other side

Next Steps

Adding boxes one at a time is fine for a handful. For a full order, import them from a spreadsheet.
