    Alias Studio Problem Sketching with Paint Symmetry

    I have encountered a problem using the paint symmetry tool within Alias Studio paint/sketch workflow. When I attempt to use either bilateral or radial symmetry when sketching with any paint brush I experience massive lag.ie. The stroke is drawn onscreen several seconds after I've completed.

    I use a wacom cintiq although the same result is encountered when using the mouse as an input device so I do not believe it to be a driver issue related to the tablet. The problem persist regardless of how small I make the canvas; minimum number of layers ect. I have a reasonably high spec. machine, so I do not expect it to be a hardware resource issue. No other applications are running, so it should not be an application conflict. And finally, I've updated the drivers on everything I can think of.

    If anyone else has experienced this problem and has found a solution could you please advise. Thanks.

    I`ve experienced this with my Toshiba tabletPC, mainly in screen clone mode (using beamer)
    Unfortunately, I was not able to reproduce it regularly and I still suspect it is wacom/nvidia issue.
    I`ll keep you posted if found anything.

    Rereading the original question, I don't see anything about PhotoShop. How did that become part of the issue?
