# Profiled Panels in the TFC Layout

Profiled panels in the HRB layout are generated specifically using the new method "continuous leftover panels":

* The panels are placed in horizontal rows from the left or from the right. Placement begins with the bottommost row.
* As the name of the method indicates, an attempt is made to start the next panel row with the leftover panel from the previous panel.
* The horizontal dimension of the first panel can be used to influence the distribution.

Profiled panels are automatically considered with their top surface in the HRB layout. It is not necessary to enter a negative gap to cover the tongue with the groove.

At the left and right wall ends, as well as at vertical and slanted opening edges, the panels are automatically trimmed according to the profiling so that a smooth panel edge is produced.

In the layout the "tool width for panel cutting" is configured. If the leftover panel is further processed elsewhere, it must be shortened by this machining width.

In the layout the HRB interpreter automatically respects all limits entered in the component catalog and thus attached to the panel. It may happen that not all limits can be maintained. In this case the program relaxes the limits step by step until the reduced limit is reached. This is done, if necessary, sequentially for all limits until a distribution of the panels has been achieved.
