This is a regulation created by the Laser Control hardware and monitored by the software—previous data is retained for the usage of the “Undo” feature
This error can be eliminated or reduced by increasing the frequency of closing and re-opening the software (refreshes the memory usage value being tracked)
Less data is accumulated if object X and Y positions are modified before a hatch is applied (I.E. objects with multiple hatches, arrayed objects, or ornate files with many data points)
Your software will need to be updated to 2.14.10 or newer. Please note that this update is only for Windows 10 – 64 bit operating system users that have LaserMark 2.7.0 or newer
