In order to distinguish between offcuts and boards, the board code of offcuts is marked with an "X" as a prefix. This immediately clarifies whether the item is a whole board or an offcut. When an offcut is removed, the corresponding board type in materialManager will  also be deleted. This way, you always have an overview of your available board types  including their associated offcuts.
