Mark types

This window allows the user to choose different types of marking elements in DXF files (one-dimensional points, minicircles, triangles, segments, …).

This is especially useful for laser cutting plotters, and the ability to adapt marking to manufacturer preferences.

Remember that leparagliding generates two types of plans, some for use with conventional printers (“print” version), and others for professional use with computerized cutting plotters (“laser” version).

Number of marks

Mark types is an optional section.

If you do not want to define/ use these parameters set the Number of configs value to 0.
