View Full Version : viewport performance SLOW - top view only

puzzle for today:

I can scrub or playback (viewport) my scene back and forth easily in every viewport but default "top" view.

In top view, everything acts like it is in major refresh overload -- playback is about 1 frame every 3 seconds and scrubbing doesn't happen in real time. It also takes a longer time to refresh when switching to top view (F2) from the other views (about 1-1.5 seconds)). same slowness in default bottom view, btw

any ideas?

I think I have every viewport configured the same.....

if I create my own "top view" camera, camera (0,1000,0) point at target at (0,0,0), scrubbing can happen in real time. ...and refresh to this created top view from other views happens quickly

thx in advance

your top view probably has a different pref somewhere like transparency is one in eogl or something like that.

copy and paste the scene into a new file and it will all act the same again most likely.

thanks Kai...your response got me digging deeper into thru "shift-v" viewport attributes of the "top view" panel....
...I had loaded a background image when I was originally modeling the scene and it was still being loaded.....once I got rid of that...things worked as expected

appreciate it...
