Problem working with mesh files after update

Anonymous

Hi everyone. I wanted to ask, has anyone else encountered similar problems when working with mesh files. As you can see in the video, when I change the view (rotate, zoom), with the cursor on the mesh file, it changes its visual display. Also that slows down Fusion a whole lot which wasn't happening before the Mesh update, I was able to work easily with similar complicated mesh files.

Hi,

 

Thanks for posting this. 

 

You might have noticed that the update you are referring to held a massive new change for Mesh, which includes putting Mesh into Parametric space by creating a Mesh tab. There were a lot of changes in this upgrade.

One of the changes directly affects how mesh models use memory. I mention this because what I'm seeing in your video looks like memory management. Fusion is turning off shadow and edge display while you select and move the model. One reason it could be different is that you have the mesh body selected which also should "highlight" the body, which means extra graphics adornment.

 

The only performance delay is the 1/10 second pause when it turns off the edge display. Are you seeing more significant pauses or performance problems than that in other workflows?

 

I'm not sure exactly so it would help if you could provide a mesh model for me to test. I'm happy to look into what you are finding and report back to the mesh developers.

 

And just for reference, can you provide your Graphics Diagnostic information found using the Graphics Diagnostic tool on the Help > Support and Diagnostics menu?

 

Thanks,
