When a part is too close to the edge of the plate or another part it will be highlighted red and is then referred to as floating, such parts cannot be processed. This distance is determined by the Edge Gap for the plate. In some cases you may want to ignore this and nest the part in order to maximize plate usage. By selecting the floating part then RIGHT CLICKING and selecting Force Fit from the menu you will be able to nest the part in the desired location.

Take care using this feature because if you accidentally overlap the parts PrimeCut will go ahead and process them regardless.
