Annotation Editor is slow

Annotation Editor is slow

Annotation Editor is slow

(OP)
thread561-303129: Annotation Editor is very slow to edit any symbol or Annotaion

I searched Google for “nx annotation editor slow” and came across the above referenced thread.

In this thread JohnRBaker states that in NX 6.0 two different text editors were replaced with just one comprehensive editor. MANIK824’s observation as well as my own is that the comprehensive editor has performance issues that the simple editor did not.

Specifically when dealing with large text notes; when text is typed it is unable to be displayed in real time. While and end users may be able to handle this delay, when a KBE application utilizes this editor it results in a slow performing KBE application. I have a specific example in which a user is waiting over a minute. From a productivity standpoint this is a big issue.

Any idea on some creative ways to solve this. Is there a simple annotation editor that can be referenced via KBE to eliminate this performance issue?

What version of NX are you running?

NX 8, soon to be NX 9.

RE: Annotation Editor is slow

I would suggest that you take this up with GTAC as I'm unaware of any performance issues with respect to the text editors used in the current versions of NX. If this had been an ongoing issue I would have expected some additional responses to my posting back in July 2011 but I can't recall this every being discussed except in the thread that you referenced.

Agree, it is slow. It takes notable time to start the dialog. It's not as instant as other dialogs.
