    <p>Here is a low tech but possible solution:</p> <p>We just ran into the same issue. I decided to take our box sizes and then give each product a percentage for how much space it took in each box size. Our products are free form and can be squished a bit so if yours are absolute in size you may need to reduce the percentages to account for products being put in the box at different angles ect... Also for us we are able to always put things in the boxes as the same angle to each other so this also helps make the below method work better.</p> <p>This assumes there are 3 box sizes:</p> <ul> <li>Product A <ul> <li>Box A = 48% <em>(2 fit in a box)</em></li> <li>Box B = 30% <em>(3 fit in a box)</em></li> <li>Box C = 12% <em>(8 fit in a box)</em></li> </ul></li> <li>Product B <ul> <li>Box A = 24%</li> <li>Box B = 15%</li> <li>Box C = 7%</li> </ul></li> </ul> <p>Then just have your code add up those percentages for your cart items for box A, B and C ... obviously if any are below 100% everything should fit and if you start from top to bottom the first one to reach less than 100% will fit your products and be the smallest box. And if you run into any scenarios when packing that wont fit just slightly reduce the percentage you entered for that product.</p> <p>For multiple box shipments you just need to decide what you want to do as for as combinations. The above works best for single box shipments but with some additional logic could easily work well for multiple box shipments.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
