incorrect perfect grain nesting

Build:  25.2.317.641
Library:  Foundation 26.0112

With the new software build and the updated nesting algorithm, we are seeing errors on perfect grain nesting between multiple products.  Specifically, we use separate header assemblies above upper cabinets with grained laminate.  I set the part properties to "#1" etc for the doors and header face panels as we've been used to doing.  You can see from the picture below that the door orientation for two-door uppers is incorrect.  The hinge bores should be opposite of each other for the grain matching to work.

Switching back to 'Use Legacy Optimizer' in the CNC processing station corrects the problem.  Obviously, something has changed for the worse in the new nesting routine.  Y'all might need to take a close look at that for the next update build.

Thanks!
