QCAD Super Slow on Super Fast iMac

Do you have a question you want to ask an existing QCAD user about QCAD and what you can do with it? Do you want to know if a particular feature exists? This is the place to ask.

QCAD Super Slow on Super Fast iMac

Post by SmallDiggs » Wed Sep 12, 2018 4:05 pm

Hey,

I'm testing QCAD and when using on my newer, very fast iMac, the entire user interface is super slow and laggy. Is there a setting I should be aware of?

Are you referring to opening menus, clicking buttons, showing dialogs, etc? Or panning, zooming in? The later depends on the loaded drawing, the first one does not and would indeed indicate a problem.

Yes, I opened this file so I think I understand what you're talking about. The file I was having an issue with is a survey that I opened complete with topographic information. The file size is: 61.5 MB so I can't upload it here.

But you can download it from my dropbox file:
