It works for me, you don't by chance have the cloud de-selected in the resource browser do you? Quote Link to comment
fabrica Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 thanks for reply, the old reliable restart fixed it ! Quote Link to comment
Asemblance Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Great, looking forwards to seeing if this has solved some of our project file sharing woes! Quote Link to comment
Patrick Fritsch Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 SP2 installed fine but I got this message? Not sure what the effects are so FYI only. I did correct my files where the origin marker in the screen rulers was not available. Quote Link to comment

There was a post somewhere that said basically there is a new preference setting that didn't exist previously which triggered that warning. Quote Link to comment
zoomer Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 The zooming lags, in crowded files where it seemed that selection detection blocked view changes seem to work much better now. And want to point out that generally VW'S capability to handle complex files in OpenGL and its support of Symbols works really really well ! Quote Link to comment
Matt Overton Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 (edited) Space objects are now joy enriched with many many beach balls of death. Any change double beach ball about 8-10 secs each. so 20secs inactive per change. Edited December 7, 2017 by Matt Overton added timing Quote Link to comment

I was not able to replicate this on a few upgraded files or in a new blank one. Quote Link to comment

I was not able to replicate this on a few upgraded files or in a new blank one. New files a still get a clear stutter like it has returned control but then grabs it back. Neither pause is a enough to beach ball, both are worse if object has transparency. Problem gets distinctly worse as the you work with files with more geometry on another visible layer. Even if I add a space for the first time to a reasonably complex file. I get a clear stutter. Testing a number of files that had spaces pre service pack 2 and stutter becomes greater to the point of beach balling. Quote Link to comment

I have a couple Space-heavy files here that myself and a few QA members can't replicate the slowness in and they suspect it might be an issue with your user plugin prefs. Quote Link to comment
