View Full Version : Short stalls in editing?

Another question this morning. I am experiencing small "stalls" while working in C4D. Basically what happens is I do a command and then go to do the next and I click but nothing happens. There is no response from the screen at all. Five seconds or so later, C4D "wakes up". Sometimes it will then execute the second command, sometimes not, probably depending on how many times I clicked while waiting! I thought at first that this was simply a function of having tons of polys on screen. But now I'm editing a small subsection of the scene and I'm working with Xpresso and other tools and I'm still experiencing the stalls. Anyone have experience with this?

I'm running a P4 1.8 Mhz, 512 meg Rambus, ASUS P4TE mobo. Possibly too many other processes running? There's Norton running all the time, could that be it? Other suspects?

Thanks for any suggestions.

Okay, I found that thread. He recommended enabling high priority in the preferences. I have done so and will report back. Thank you slouchcorp. Been a morning of really quick responses! Or maybe I'm just asking easy questions...

High priority fixed all my stalls.
