Class can have max 2 gaps per day
The software doesn't create gaps for classes and students by default, but calculates the average number of lessons per day and then it places them consecutively. This is ensured by so-called "Educational block". See this article for more information: Education block - Checking of gaps in class timetables
However if you need to have gaps in classes timetables, but you wish to minimize them to max 2 free periods in a day, you can do so in this way:
1. At first allow gaps in classes timetables with "discontinuous educational block". See: Education block - How to allow gaps in class timetables
OR
set, that some subjects can be in the afternoon. See: How can I define lessons that can be outside teaching block(in the afternoon)?
