Q&A
Is this really free? Yes, I'm making it available free of charge. It's copyrighted to prevent others from publishing it as their own. Is there a longer manual I can purchase? No, this is it. Is there an iPad version? No, the steps and screenshots are for the macOS and Windows versions. Is there a version for Designer or Photo? No, but many of the features are the same so you should still find it useful. Why does it use a print layout if it's a PDF? It's a demonstration of how to use the features it describes to create a print book. Previous version for 2.3:

biguprush got a reaction from S J Damson in slow performance and crashes when drawing with tablet
Hello.
I've been using Photo for digital drawing.
It has been crashing a lot lately and I gave it like 80% of my whole ram for performance and I am only drawing without any othe app open.
I've been using Christi's comix toolbox and the Daub Paintbox Blockers.
I cannot use much of the blockers' brushes because some of them take too long to paint, others hang up the system and I end up painting with Robota1 and 2 from Daub Paintbox Blockers set.

One more thing, @Dan C!!!!
I've been working with Publisher and Photo a lot lately so I've had the chance to compare.
The Publisher document dimensions are 3497 x 2481 if I export the 2 pages as a PNG (attached) and I can tell you that using Photo persona from Publisher performs better than Photo alone. Dimensions are almost the same as the used on the test (3000px square)
I'm available if you and the team wants me to share screen and see what's up.
Thanks for following this up.

Hola, @Dan C
I'll hold this ticket for a while. I started tweaking some settings and I enabled Windows Ink and it's behaving as desired so far.
I need to test this a little more with other brushes and make sure that this is the solution, and not that this is working fine coincidentally with the brushes I use the most.
