Advanced Graphics Slows Rebuilds Considerably

Jul 15, 2004 1 Replies

I just noticed that in 2004 SP4 (maybe in other versions) that if you have, 'Advanced Graphics' enabled in your material properties AND you have 'Real View' disabled (i.e. standard enabled), the rebuild times to scroll through the Feature Manager is several seconds per feature as opposed to instantaneous without Advanced Graphics on.

This is probably old news since I never use the fancy settings.

IIRC I noticed that too. It will still apply a material texture to all faces, even though it's not using the RealView shaders. I guess it takes time to put all those textures on the model. At first I didn't notice the textures, because they can be very subtle.
