thegary Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 Just installed V2.1. The speed is very laggy when zoomed in still . This has persisted since v2 has been released. Its a vector file and no effects on this object. 1 object and it lags. Not happy. PLEASE FIX THIS. If you being in a more complex file , its almost grinds to a halt.

thegary Posted May 18, 2023 Author Share Posted May 18, 2023 @Chris B When you are zoomed in and move things around it spikes the CPU to 100% over and over. This was supposed to be fixed back in 2.03. Its back. There is NO hardware acceleration. V1 of software doesn't do this. When i this going to be fixed?

Staff Lee_T Posted May 19, 2023 Staff Share Posted May 19, 2023 Hi thegary, May i ask what steps you've tried to resolve this issue? I notice you are driving two 4k screens, are you running both displays at 4k? If so, have you tested with a single display? In the Nvidia settings, is the GPU performing any scaling or is the Display handling this? (Nvidia control panel). Issues like this tend to arise from hardware/drivers so any information into how you have your computer set up with regards to these is useful, for example driver version/type of driver (studio / game ready) Any third party apps you may run in the background that may interfere etc. Obviously some information regarding your Performance settings in Affinity would be handy, I'm assuming as an existing issue you've already experimented with these?

Lee @LeeThorpe Hello Lee, Thanks for your reply. So here is what i have done so far. 1. Always test with Single Display only. ( will worry about second monitor when i get a single one working. But it makes not difference to performance with it on .) 2. Tried both STUDIO and GAME drivers, but i default back to the STUDIO as i dont' use my PC for games. 3. I have tried with and with out Hardware OPENCL turned on. Might be slightly fast without hardware acceleration turned on. But still lagging . 4. Also most nothing running in startup but the essentials that pc needs. Antivirus is defender. Nothing else but drivers the computer needs. I do have Spyder Utility running which runs my screen calibration for my Spyder Pro. ( tried without makes no difference. ) 5. I have attached screen shots of settings panel and nvidia panel for you. 6. I build PC's all the time, i dont' game and this is a work only machine. Version 1 of Affinity runs fine. Its what i have had to use for past 6 months instead of v2 as its not stable and slows my work considerably. 7. PC is set to 125% scaling in the OS settings. and 4K in the NVIDIA panel. Screen shot attached. 8. The scaling in the software isn't good. Varies from so much . Need a better scaling option in the software. Need a larger thumbnail size for layers. 9. I am NOT having issue with any other software. Just Designer V2 in specific. Adobe works fine ( dont' want to use this but ). Blender is about the best software. You guys should look at how they allow you to scale the interface. All other software works as expected. Any suggestions? Not sure why hardware acceleration needs to be off. It made a huge difference when you added it to v1, seems to be a hinderance to v2.

This makes the performance problem increasingly difficult to detect. I would stop adding functions to the application and urgently solve this error (at least it works as well as V1) Ezbaze and thegary 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Chris B Posted May 26, 2023 Staff Share Posted May 26, 2023 We will continue to look at what else you can try. However, at the moment the issue does seem isolated. Most users in the threads you were involved in reported positive feedback regarding performance after the fix we made. I did see a thread yesterday where someone with a threadripper reduced the amount of processors which improved everything. However, that does not suggest why you have a difference between v1 and v2. thegary 1 Quote How to format a bug report | Learning Resources | List of V2 FAQs | YouTube Tutorials Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Chris B Posted May 30, 2023 Staff Share Posted May 30, 2023 Hi Gary, These pages and pages of threads, to my knowledge was referring to lag which was being caused by us implementing something that tracked objects on the page/document. This was implemented in the earliest versions of V2 and removed in the last beta of V2 which was then released to the public. We've had lots of people suggest that the lag has stopped or vastly improved. I've just checked some of these threads that we linked to from the bug report and the feedback has been positive. If you still have V1 installed, can you please start a document in that, record yourself moving an object and then save it, open in V2 and continue to move the object. I can then pass this to the developers and they might be able to identify something else.
