Use of Macros

[VladCA]

Anyone has an issue with increased CPU up to 90% when trying to run Macros? Use a brand new iMac 2020 with 8 core I7 and 64bg RAM.

I have not yet seen that on my iMac (specs in my sig below) but I assume that I might for some multistep macro applied to a very high resolution layer object that requires lots of CPU processing. If you can post an example .afphoto document & the specific macro you are using, I can test that & see what I get.

Also, when you say 90%, what are you using to see that? On my iMac Activity Monitor can show a window display a moving graph of CPU usage for 16 cores, I assume the second 8 being the virtual hyper-threading ones of Intel's SMT implementation. I have not noticed doing anything with AP that uses that second set at all but I have not really been paying any attention to that.

You can switch off other people's signatures on the same screen where you set up your own signature.

If you can't find it or that is not what you mean please start another thread so as not to derail this one

Sorry, I did post another thread that I could not create new Topic, Safari iPadOS 14 update.  As of today, the problem has disappeared.  

I do thank you as it was turned off, now on to see signatures.

Signature visibility also depends on the size of the browser window you're viewing the forum in. On my phone, in portrait orientation, I do not see them. In landscape orientation, I do. On my desktop or laptop machine I can make them disappear by making the browser window narrow enough.
