    Suggestion? —Adam Howard
   Hi Mike! I've been working on a large model and have run into the slowwwiiiinnnnggg-dowwn wall. Whenever I add a new piece or rotate a selected one it seems to take forever. I'm not sure, but I believe it is because MLCAD re-renders the whole model (...) (24 years ago, 15-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
   
        Re: Suggestion? —Michael Lachmann
     The sounds like a good idea. However you should check your settings, and see if the Position for new part is not centered, and the draw to selection only option is disabled .... this slows down very much. Thanks, Michael Adam Howard (...) (24 years ago, 15-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
    
         Re: Suggestion? —Adam Howard
     I turned off shading and turned on BFC, it seemed to improve speed a little. The settings you mentioned below were already set.

         Re: Suggestion? —Michael Lachmann
     I wouldn't think it's a good idea since this would confuse people. If you drag then drop it at a certain place then goes to a different location?!

        Re: Suggestion? —Gino A. Melone
     (...) Could you start using sub-models. I've found it is a lot easier to break down models into sub-models. I can then work in an uncluttered view of just the area I'm working on. I've been doing mostly mechs, so it is real easy to break things (...) (24 years ago, 15-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
