Error when generating a emn file

Hi,
I have discovered a funny bug when exporting IDF files (emn file) to our EDA software.


I have a part which contains several cuts inside the board outline.
In the outline we have added small triangles to indicate where to stop the laser.

The presents of the triangles are controlled by a family table, so we have two instances of the part. If I export the instance with triangles, the emn file is ok, but in the file without the triangles the two loops are swapped. Normal the outline loop is labeled “0” and cuts inside the outline are labeled “1” to “n”. But the cut is labeled “0” and the outline is labeled “1” and all other cuts are labeled “2” to “n”.
