Appears that Lightburn is sending items outside the grid to the laser, Why?

I’ve been using Lightburn for about 2 years. But recently I have had a problem with the items outside the grid being sent to my laser. When I check the Preview Window it indicates the everything outside the window is being sent to the laser. And, it is! I have probably done something but, I can’t find a solution. I would certainly appreciate some help.

Are you using cut selected graphics in laser window?

You should set the Ignore out-of-bounds shapes if possible switch in the Edit → Settings → Display Settings, although it seems to have moved from the File section to the Display section after those screenshots.

I am sorry about the delay in responding (I’m old) but I checked and did not have the Cut Selected Graphics enabled. That does give me another way to go. But it doesnt really solve my concern. You see I did not have this problem until recently.
Prior to this I could place multiple pieces of a project to the side of the grid and simply slide one off and another on the grid. When I did this the Preview window would only display the pieces inside the grid. Now it displays them all and sends them all to the laser.

Thank you, I did this just now and I didn’t seem clear up my problem.

Ignore out of bound shapes seemed to work for me. But I just use cut selected shapes.

Thank you for your help.
