Why sometimes dividers disappear or change location by itself when adding more dividers in MeasureSquare Stone

This article will explain what to do when "too many" dividers are used and how to stabilize the areas to continue adding more. 

NotesThe Reason This Happens: Each room is allocated a finite amount of memory for the creation of separate areas within a single container. When too many dividers are added, each one creates an additional sub-area within the room, consuming that room's available memory. Once the limit is exceeded, the system will erase previous dividers or corrupt their location data.

IdeaThe Solution: Splitting a room by region establishes each section as its own room, thereby resetting the available memory.

Solution to stabilize all the dividers:

1. Right click on divided area and click on Room Edit.




2. Select Split Room by Region.


Notes
This is technically turning these areas into rooms without walls. 


Notes
There is no set number that causes this, it is per project and combination of complex geometry and room sizes, please do this periodically if you have a project that has lots of dividers. An example would be if you are going to be adding about 30+ dividers, split by region every 5 or so. This can prevent you from experiencing any errors.
