Turn off load & comnstraint glyphs

[DWhiteley]

The dsiplay of glyphs within Inventor are very slow.

Have a sngle button (like in Sim Mech) to turn these on/off

Hi Dave,

Can you add some screen shots showing this?  It will give us more info about your request.

Thanks,

Like this.

When a lot of faces are selected for a load or constraint and you are in the edit mode - lots of regeneration of the glyphs is taking place (and slow regenration at that). This needs to be looked at.

We have this with In-CAD.  RMB on the loads/constraint/connector/mesh/etc. node and select [Hide All] to turn the visibility off.

Is this what you are looking for?

I noticed you commented on Glyph Visibility forum post.  We are working on a solution for this when you are working outside the Autodesk Nastran In-CAD environment all FEA objects are not shown.

For now the above RMB workflow is our solution.

We are aware of this and working on a solution.  

Stay tuned!

We've added a new ability to preview loads/constraints so they are not displayed by default.  We've also reduced the default number of glyphs to help with performance on large models.  There is also a setting under Default Settings>Display Options to turn off loads and constraints globally.  I hope this covers it, but if not, let us know and we can reopen it or open up a new one.  Thanks for the feedback!
