AD & AP crashes while selecting Selection Brush Tool on large documents

[malayali]

While working on 3.5 m x 5 m sized document with 300 DPI, I tried to select the Selection Brush Tool in Pixel Persona. AD immediately crashed!

No issues while working on documents with small dimensions. Also, tried opening the file in AP and issue exist there too!

Hi malayali,

Is your document using 300DPI? I've just tried this myself on a 72DPI document and it was ok, as soon as I changed it to 300 DPI I could reproduce it. I'll get this passed on to development.

With that said I would look at dropping your DPI setting to something much much lower to around 50dpi. Without knowing the the intent of the document it is hard to say, however documents of that size are generally viewed from a much further distance so a quality of 300DPI is not required.

Is 50 DPI fine in such cases?

Unfortunately I can't answer that for you, however check out this article which has a handy chart, however I would also do some research and speak to your printers about your needs as well.
