DateTicketTypeProgramApplicationDescription
11/01/07 Mod VrTwo Improved handling of low memory situation by automatically unloading extra levels from memory if free memory gets too low.
11/01/07 Mod VrTwo During roaming mode, pressing Ctrl-Del will remove that oldest level of buffer data from memory. This can be helpful if memory is running low.

11/01/07 Mod VrTwo Added Maximum Roam Levels in the Vr Configuration under the Image settings. This allows you to specify the maximum number of image levels to keep in memory in roaming mode. When roaming files with a large number of vectors, keeping this number to 2 or 3 may help prevent memory shortage problems.
