Autocad lagging curser


Ellis

Recommended Posts

I have not had this problem before but i have been getting drawings from my boss. He sent me a drawing last week and i couldn't do it because my mouse was so laggy. He sent me other drawings after and they are fine. Then today i have the same problem with this drawing too. These drawings are not big, i open a bigger drawing while this is open and it works fine. So i don't think it's a hardware problem.

I have tried to add it into other drawings incase the file was currupt, it just makes that one lag too.

ive tried all the things online to sort out lag but none of it worked. audit, purge, hardware acceleration, updated drivers.

He can use the file fine on his computer and another one in the office can use it normal too, only my laptop has the problem. (my laptop is better than the computers in the office)

i'm using autocad 2018.

If anyone has a solution i'd greatly appreciate it.

Does the cursor appear to stick to objects? 

Try setting the ROLLOVERTIPS (System Variable) to 0 to shut them off. 

 

I added a macro to toggle them Off/On:

Command Name    Rollover Tooltips

Description              Rollover Tooltips toggle

Macro                       ^P(ai_onoff "rollovertips") ^P 

 

After adding it to the ribbon add the display name:  $(if,$(getvar,rollovertips),!.)Rollover Tooltips

Then it will display highlighted when toggled on.

Does the drawing contain a lot of image attachments or hatching?

No, its only a .3mb drawing. Pretty simple topographical survey.
