I have a Microsoft surface 16gb Intel(R) Core™ i7-8650U CPU @ 1.90GHz 2.11 GHz
but recently on two PCs its starting to time out for 3 secs when moving an item , fairly simple drawings. Is this the parametric update that means I need a higher spec
This is what ive tried below
Ive deleted off alot fo open projects which did help
Ive reinstalled etc
I have set priority high for program
I’ve deleted sketches that were irrelevant
Tried exporting the file and then loading into a new drawing
I do have some step files loaded from other files sent but dont think this should be issue
I also notice that the program has become very slow - I even have the impression that it is getting slower month by month. I have a very fast computer, but I have already deleted many projects externally and tried to keep Shapr3D lean and clean. Unfortunately, the promised performance improvement is not kept with every update.
Creating a bottle or a simple model has nothing to do with work - Shapr3D is unfortunately becoming a pure hobby application.
Step usually has more info in it but is the most common file sharing format.
I’ll usually open a new project, import the step so it’s quick since there’s nothing else, then export as x_t, usually gets a smaller file size. Then import the x_t into the project.
Just did a test on my Surface 6 i5 8gig. I made 4 circular arrays with extruded twisted ovals, octogons, cones etc. each with boolean cuts on all objects 211 bodies and I am impressed how little lag there is. Boolean operation on there last array took about 5 seconds. CPU usage about 60 percent. Ram used 6.4 gigs. A little warm and email, browser running in the background. I did this before reading this post. Version 5.620.6941.0 #ae8fa4af
Did realsie we are on 6 for suface, love the laptops, but yeah makes sense, issue is a dupplicate simple forms for creating lighting designs sonthatvwill be why. If drawn in shaper it would be 10% that size
