Slow panning while solid hatch selected

Panning works really good in the attached document. But when I select the hatch it slows panning down tooooo much. 

 

Why? 

It only happens when Hardware acceleration is enabled? I have the latest driver installed for Quadro 4000.

So you might say that the solution is to disable hardware acc? Its not. 

 

It gets a bit better but then my regular panning (with nothing selected) sufers - poor quality. 

 

What should I do?

same here: I opened your file, selected the solid had and panned around. Smooth as silk. But I don't have your vid card: did you search around here for other posts? There seem to be a few with your card and tips on fixing it.

Just tried 2 different latest drivers - no luck... 

searched the forums and web - no luck

I know I recently played around with some of the performance system variables... 

Specfically these ones: http://forums.autodesk.com/autodesk/attachments/autodesk/706/6178/1/NEW%20AutoCAD%20Performance%20Ti...

Tried undoing some but no luck... So i just changed the profile from Unnamed to 2015 one (see attached).. But no luck...

 

is there a way to reset the system variables to factory defaults? Or am i going down the wrong avenue...

Hi,

 

>> Panning works really good in the attached document. But when I select the hatch it slows panning down tooooo much.

I can't see any difference if the hatch is selected or not, panning (middle-mouse) is as fast as expected. (Win7x64, AutoCAD 2015, nVidia Quadro K1000M)

Alfred you have a different card - but is your hardware accelaration on?

-PAN,  pick two points.  Invariably the fastest way to pan.

Yes, had it on ... and it's fast with both settings, on and off.

Hi zzz144, 

 

Can you right-click on the Desktop and let us know what NVIDIA Control Panel>Manage 3D Settings has selected for Preferred graphics processor? In the lower left corner there should also be a System Information link. Can you tell us the driver version number? 

 

Also, if you have made a lot of setting/variable changes and would like to set everything  back to factory defaults, go to Start>All Programs>Autodesk>AutoCAD 2015> Reset Settings to Default. You will have the option to create a zip file backup of any customization. 

 

Thanks 🙂

Christina, 

Thank you, 

This helped me replicate and pinpoint the proble. 

This happens with hardware acc ON when SELECTIONEFFECT is set to 0. 


I like the selection effect but it slows things all the way down.

Solution:

Turn on the SELECTIONEFFECT system variable:

  1. At the command line in AutoCAD, type SELECTIONEFFECT.
  2. Change the setting from 0 to 1
