RealCADD and iPocket Draw

Hi Eric I tried creating a new User with just the standard Mac programs and got much the same results as RealCADD gradually slowed down to finally being unusable. I also ran EtreCheck on the new User with much the same result – Performance: Below Average. The Minor problems listed were much the same...

Can you try on as another user without extension ? Sorry Eric I don't quite understand what you want me to do?? Cheers -- George EDIT – and I seem to get the same problems with earlier versions – I went back to v. 5.21. So I guess it must be my laptop. I ran EtreCheck and it said Performance: Below...

Hi Eric Yes at higher zooms it does get slower. I took a couple of screenshot movies which show the problems I'm having. †hese are after about 10 minutes or so. It does get worse than that if you persist. https://whisstock.com/screenshot_1.mov and https://whisstock.com/screenshot_2.mov You can see t...

Hi Eric To answer your questions: It doesn't seem to be particularly related to total number of objects or a particular drawing. On the drawing I am working on at the moment there are currently 4116 objects – not a huge number – and about 3000 of those could be converted to four polygons, so would o...

Hi Eric I am still getting problems running v.5.41 on a non-M chip MacBook Air. It starts off just fine. Very fast everything OK. Then it gradually gets slower and slower until it's basically not usable. So I quit and restart – and then its fine again until it starts to slow down as before and becom...

Ah - I know how to do that ok! I have several of them already for other menu items.

I thought you had provided a means to do that directly through RealCADD! I can see now that having tools as a menu item allows you to do that!

No problem.

Hi Eric

I can see the new menu but I don't understand how you can configure a keyboard shortcut??

It sort of repeats right-clicking on the drawing space doesn't it?

Cheers -- George

Ah - that did it – it had retracted and was hiding under the dock, right over to the left of the screen.

Thanks Eric!

George

And it does appear to be very much faster with the M1 chip – though it's hard to tell without a Tools menu!

Cheers -- George

Hi Eric So I installed RealCADD on my other laptop (which has an M1 chip) to see if PDF extracts worked faster, and entered my registration number etc. All good, RC knows it's me. But the Tools window won't show!!!!! All the rest are there OK. And go away if I deselect them. If I use a keyboard shor...
