PaoloT Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Hi, My system is not particularly fast (Mac mini i7 quad), but all other features seem to fly. However, the rectangular selection tool is very slow. 1. Clic to point, and it takes nearly one second to make the lazo appear. 2. Drag to select, and the top left corner is moved down and right from the original focus. Is anybody else seeing this behavior? Paolo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Chris B Posted March 10, 2020 Staff Share Posted March 10, 2020 Hey Paolo, I cannot reproduce. Can you go to Preferences > Performance and screenshot the dialog so we can see the settings you're using?

Here is my Performance pane: I've just installed v1.8.2, and it behaves in the same way. Paolo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaoloT Posted March 18, 2020 Author Share Posted March 18, 2020 I don't know if this video can help understanding what is happening. I'm trying to select the grey frame, but selection starts late, and is not accurate. Paolo aphoto-slow.mov Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Chris B Posted March 18, 2020 Staff Share Posted March 18, 2020 Thanks Paolo, Thanks for the video. Could you try disabling Metal compute acceleration and try using OpenGL to see if that improves it?

Chris, with Metal turned off in the Preferences, the lazo starts immediately. There is no delay when starting selection. Paolo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Chris B Posted March 19, 2020 Staff Share Posted March 19, 2020 Hey Paolo, Then this is the setting you should be working with. Metal compute is not the solution for all machines right now, even if you can enable it. Please let me know if OpenGL presents you with any woes.

PaoloT Posted March 19, 2020 Author Share Posted March 19, 2020 Sure, I'll report any strange behavior. Thank you for the solution! Paolo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
