I have noticed that in recent builds of Shapr3D the there is a delay and a sluggishness in the response to user input. I use Shapr on an iPad Pro and also on a recent-model Macbook, and have noticed the problem on both platforms. This problem manifests in many operations. For example, a double tap …

Update to a newer version if you can and the problem will go away. I’m on v5.530.0.6287 on my iPad Pro.

Thanks, I got your file. We’ll take a look, 60-70 items shouldn’t normally cause slowdowns, we do have automated and manual tests for every release where we check that, and it indeed runs smoothly on my Mac. But we’ll dive deeper next week and test on different devices and app versions. Could you ma…

[image] Jason42: With a little investigation, I have discovered part of the cause (or at least the trigger) of the problem. Many of the slow and sluggish or ignored responses to user input go away when closing the “Items” sidebar. Excellent observation and investigation, @Jason42 !! I see the …

5.521 (what I’m using) is the newest available that I can see. [Screenshot 2024-01-14 at 12.51.41 PM]

Thanks @Bob3DPO and @Justin074 . Very helpful to know that I’m not the only one noticing this. Thanks for the backup!

For more clairty for the Shapr3D team: Regular version, not beta. Macbook Pro 13" M1 Sonoma 14.2.1 with version 5.521.0.6217 iPad Pro 11" M2 iPadOS 17.2 with version 5.521.0.6217 Experiencing most of the issues as @Jason42 but with mouse and keyboard. Project size doesn’t seem to be an issues a…

Thanks, all of you! We are investigating it as we speak and can hopefully deliver a fix soon. If, in the meanwhile, you happen to find anything specific that reliably triggers (or fixes) these slowdowns apart from the state of the items menu, please let us know, it does help a lot.

Hi @Jason42 , I just updated my iPadPro to 5.560.0.6492 #f892af6c Beta. In quick testing, it seems to me that the responsiveness is much better with regard to selecting items with the Items sidebar is open. In projects where I couldn’t select a body by double-tapping my Pencil (at least not easily)…

Hi Bob, My M1 iPad Pro is updated to 5.560.0.6500 #4fb0edad. I have a couple of dozen objects visible in my workspace and the double tap is still sluggish when the Items List is visible. Sketching small lines can also be quirky where the start point of the line slips a short distance. I have to un…

Hi Mike, Thanks for the contrast. And, my most recent live version is 5.552… you are always the first to get the update! I’ve continued to see a better selection on the beta. Some projects that I had very difficult time with the Item List open are working pretty well. I’ve also been able to sketch …

This seems to fix the slowdown issues on MacOS so far. Thanks for the workaround!

Shapr3d becomes very sluggish after about 30 min of use/poor performance onWindows
