I hope this didn't sound like an advertisement for other products because I love OCL and the way it was designed.

Hi Andrei,
Thank you for enjoying OpenCutList 😊 !
Yes, the blue line in cutting diagrams only represent's the data that there's an edge band to apply.
And to obtain more data about edges, the best way is to :
- display the Parts list following the cutting diagram with the 4 edges columns
- Print Labels where you can render all of this data

I understand that this answer is not exactly what you want. But using parts list or print labels is not a good solution in your process ?

The best compromise could be to use the edge material color defined in sketchup instead of the common "blue" color. But in this case how can we render white edges ??
The Cutlist optimizer solution only solve 50% of the problem. Because it only represent the thickness, not the "kind" of edge material...

Great response! I think this will do the trick. I had no idea that I can set this column to appear in the cutting diagram from the parts menu. I kept searching for a solution from the Display option after activating the cutting diagram menu. Nice to know the reasoning behind every tool and option. I can hardly wait for the Exploded view. Great job and greetings from Romania!
