Set onion-skin passes and through-cut ordering in nesting NC programs
Control whether through-cuts are machined in one pass or two, and know that they always run last in the program.
Through-cut contours (and 'small part' contours when small-part handling is enabled) are always grouped separately and machined at the end of the program, after all regular routing and drilling - regardless of any setting.

If they want single-pass through-cuts, set Enable Onion Skin Pass to 'no' and regenerate.
In the MES app (Settings > Machines > Add machine, CNC / Manual Operations > Nesting > NC) the option is labelled 'Enable Final Pass' (No by default), next to 'Final Pass Depth'; there is no field named 'Enable Onion Skin Pass'.
