Tried a sketchup plugin for nested cabinet parts and it made a mess of my plywood order

I spent a Sunday setting up that CutList plugin, thinking it would save me math time on a kitchen job with 15 boxes in Denver. It randomized all my grain direction and I ended up with show-side panels that looked like a checkerboard. Anybody else had luck getting those plugins to respect grain flow?

Has anyone else gotten burned by grain direction with those nesting plugins or am I just unlucky here in Denver?

Honestly, my plywood order looked like somebody dropped a Rubik's Cube.
