GIMP :: Screen Tearing And Slow When Panning Canvas Under Windows 7

Feb 10, 2013

Did you get the driver from nvidia's Web site? Check for firmware anddriver updates first.Yes a bad move :P but i need to use some software that's not compatible with linux.

An obvious 'solution' is to install Linux as a VM under Virtualbox.

Photoshop :: Screen Tearing And Black Dots In CS6?

May 21, 2013

I recently reinstalled windows 7, and since then I've been having two problems with photoshop cs6.The first one is that whenever I make an action in the program like zooming, using the hand tool, making strokes with the brush, I get these black dots appearing and disappearing on the screen.They are like black pixels and appear at random locations.I actually had the same problem a couple of months ago and got the advice to install the 12.8 catalyst drivers for my ATI SAPPHIRE 7870, as they are the most stable.That fixed it and I haven't had the problem until now when I reinstalled my windows and it started happening again.The only difference is that installing the 12.8 drivers doesn't fix it anymore.I tried many driver versions 13.4, 13.5 beta, 12.10 and the problem stays.I know it's a GPU problem, because when I desable the GPU in Performance, it fixes it.The only solution that I have found for this problem is to put the drawing mode on Basic in Performance and that fixes it.So this is not the main issue at the moment, since as far as I know, I can just stay in Basic mode and it won't affect my digital drawing.
 
The second problem that I have is that, there is a ton of screen tearing when I move my image around, like using the hand tool and the rotate view tool especially.It's like not having Vsync turned on or something, but as there is no option like that in PS CS6, I can't control that.I tried turning off and on the different option in Performance and nothing fixes it.It's interesting that even when I turn off GPU ussage, the problem still stays, so maybe it's not a video card/driver problem.So bottom line: black dots- fixed it with switching to Basic drawing mode, would like to know if there are other ways to fix it; screen tearing when moving the canvas/ image.

My PC specs are Core i3-3220 CPU 3.30 GHz, 8GB RAM Kingston HyperX, Sapphire Radeon 7870 HD 2GB GHz Edition, Motherboard - ASUS P8H77-V and I'm running on Windows 7 64-bit.

GIMP :: Windows 8 Clone Tool Slow

Jul 12, 2013

I just got a new computer running Windows 8. It's a powerful machine (i7, 4 cores, 8 GB RAM, hybrid HD) and it's smoking fast on everything except Gimp's clone tool. The clone tool is so slow it's barely usable.

Revit :: Blinking Screen When Panning Or Zooming?

Jan 16, 2012

I'm using a student version of RAC 2011 and everything works out well upon installation. My problem is that whenever I pan or zoom in on my model, the screen will blink black and white, and at certain zoom level, the screen stays all black. I'm using an ASUS K52jc-Ex303 laptop with the following specs:

Operating System: Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit
Processor: Intel Intel® Core™i3-370 2.40 GHz
Memory: 4GB DDR3 
Graphics Card: NVIDIA Geforce 310M

I have already installed the latest drivers from nvidia, which doesn't seem to work.

Matter of fact, it's so bad, that i'm always forced to turn off hardware acceleration which is a headache especially with large-scale models and it keeps on crashing.

I understand the fact that this GPU was built for gaming, and its not listed in the list of recommended graphics cards by autodesk. (I get the some features... message everytime i open RAC) My question is, is there anyway I can tweak the settings within the nvidia control panel to improve this issue on my revit architecture 2011?

Photoshop :: Dell XPS Laptop Touch Screen Inputs Interpreted As Panning CS6

Oct 7, 2012

I would like to try Photoshop for digital art.  I downloaded the 30 day trial version of Adobe Illustrator CS 6 about three days ago and noticed immediately that touching my laptop’s touch screen will only allow me to pan using the Hand Tool in Photoshop. I have never had this problem in Adobe Illustrator, as using the touch screen acts just as if I were clicking the left mouse button and dragging the cursor around the screen. I have a Dell XPS 15 - L502X laptop with an integrated touch screen (the entire 15” screen is Multi-touch sensitive).  It is running N-Trig DuoSense Digitizer with the latest drivers.  Is there some simple setting change that can be done within Photoshop CS6 to make it recognize a touch screen input as a normal left click and thus allow me to draw on it using the pen, pencil, or paintbrush tool?  I find it quite odd that I have no problems with this in Illustrator CS6.  Could it be that this tablet-like touch screen input is restricted on the trial version? 
 
Here is a link to a youtube video that I put up showing the problem.  The first program shown in the video is Adobe Illustrator CS6 using the Paintbrush tool.  The second program shown is Adobe Photosop CS6 using the pencil tool.  I draw the line in Ps using the mouse pad and then attempt to draw (still using the pencil tool) on the touch screen yielding only scrolling with the hand tool.

Here's my system specs copy pasted right from PhotoShop.

GIMP :: Panning Especially While Zoomed-in

Jun 27, 2013

I upgraded to the latest and greatest version 2.8. I like most everything about 2.8.x. Generally, I have found the adjustments/transition to the new feature and controls to be a rather easy. However, I am having an issue with panning, while editing. It doesn't matter if I am at 100%, or while zoomed in, or zoomed-out, panning is a problem.

All the way up-to and through versions 2.6.x, while working details, zoomed-in to 800% or so, when I would PAN the image (hold down the Space-bar, hold down the left-mouse, drag the mouse, or while using the vertical and horizontal scroll bars) it was always a smooth image drag/movement. Since the introduction of 2.8.x Panning has become a nightmare. It's extremely choppy with, broken up, and it freezes up for short periods of time, basically it's anything but smooth. The panning feature is a huge step backwards from what I have become accustom to. The problem is I am zoomed-in on whatever it is I am working on at least 95% of the time (cutting, painting, etc.).

Perhaps I am just a creature of habit but I like working at the pixel level. I'd like to get panning working the way it has always worked.

GIMP :: Displays Rubbish When Panning Picture?

Mar 29, 2013

i managed to test G2.8.4 without uninstalling my current 2.6.And therefore, i have some questions, and the first one is about the strange behaviour of the image drawing when panning the picture.Instead of long boring words, lemme post a picture of the picture window after panning the image: The image is brought as attachement...

After a short time ( from less than 1 sec to 2-3 sec) this appearance disappears and the image is properly drawn.

for info: win7 on AMD dual core with 4Gb RAM and a Geforce GT 210 with 512Mb VRAM. drivers are up to date

Photoshop :: CC On Windows 8 Canvas Flicker

Jul 10, 2013

I've Recently updated to Photoshop CC on windows 8, and I'm getting a really bad flicker whenever I use it (it feels like I'm having a seizure). I have seen on various forums as well as in the offical Adobe section that this is an issue. The recommended solution was to reduce graphic processing setting to basic. I did but nothing has changed. I also read that people had turned graphic processing off completly, this also didn't work.
 
I'm am using a Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000 in a Dell xps.

Mar 29, 2012

When I move a canvas around the screen, if I take it too near the top it will snap to the top of the screen and take up the whole page with just this one canvas. How do I stop it from doing this? I guess its in options somewhere but as I dont know what its called I dont know what to search for? Also how do I stop one canvas snapping into another/tabbing into another when moving them around?

Photoshop :: CS6 Is Very Slow (Windows 7)

May 21, 2013

Photoshop CS6 behaves slow, very slow. Even with no document open, right after launch it reacts with delay on any mouseclick, sometimes it takes more than 20 seconds before a menu pops open after clicking. Painting paintbrushes are impossible slow.Basically any action is dragged.Its impossible to work like this. With all previous versions of PS i never encountered this.Things i tried :

- turned off gpu acceleration (i read that gpu can cause performance issues, some ppl solved slowness by turning it off)
- updated latest nvidia drivers
- reinstalled photoshop
- tried to inspect photoshop processes with Process Hacker, even when at 5% cpu it runs extremely slow

specs :

Windows 7
Nvidia GT545
1 terrabyte free scratch disk space (on C:)
8 gb ram
CPU i7 2600

Photoshop :: Canvas Disappear - Adobe CS6 On A Windows 7 64 Bit Notebook

Photoshop :: Very Slow Lightroom 4.4 To CS6 In Windows 8?

May 17, 2013

I have a problem with my Windows 8 computer. notice that on this computer I did not change any of the default settings in the operating system, it is a clean install of Windows 8. I have also installed the latest version of Photoshop and Lightroom directly from my Adobe Application Manager software (I am a Creative Cloud member).
 
What happens is that I have to wait 30-50 seconds after I give, in Lightroom, the command "Modify in -> Photoshop CS6" (I have the software in Italian and I hope that this translation is correct. Here is the command that I am using:
 
The very strange thing that happens is that Photoshop opens fast (5 seconds, I have an SSD) and Lightroom is very fast too. Here is the strange thing. Photoshop opens after I launch the command.
 
Then nothing seems to happen for 30-50 seconds (sometimes also more time). After this “long” period of time this error appears in Lightroom:
 
It says: "you can't modify this file because Photoshop CS6 can't be started". However, this is not true! Photoshop is running correctly, and it was running! This happens if Photoshop was started from Lightroom and if Photoshop was running before Lightroom command "Modify in -> Photoshop CS".
 
Another strange thing is that, after I press "OK" to this error message, the file immediately opens in Photoshop!
 
notice that this behavior happens also with a series of file. If, for example, I export 10 files from Lighroom, then, after about one minute, I get 10 error messages in Lightroom, and, when I press OK, the files will open in Photoshop (for each "OK" that I press a file opens, so I have to press 10 times OK to open my 10 files!).

AutoCAD LT :: Slow Zoom In Windows 7

I am using an old computer and Autocad LT 2014. I was using Windows XP and Autocad was working fine and zooms were instant.

I installed Windows 7 and installed Autocad LT 2014 64 bit and now all is fine except the zooms - zooms are slow now. I only have 4 gigs of ram.

AutoCAD LT :: Windows 8 - Slow Switching Between Layouts

May 21, 2013

We installed Autocad LT 2014 on our new computer and I noticed that it is unusually slow to switch between layouts. 

The bottom bar (where the paper/model space button is) kept flashing/switching as if its thinking whenever i click from one layout to another.  Even when I'm zooming in and out, the bottom bar kept flashing slowly.

I was hoping that a new computer+new cad will make our work more efficient and faster, but i noticed theres a lot of lagging and general slowness in loading files.

3ds Max :: 2011- Slow Save Files In Windows 7

Apr 19, 2011

I just recently upgraded from WinXP64 to Windows 7 Ultimate 64 and everything is good… aside from the fact that everytime I save the files, it is realy slow

I never had this issue before (although when I think about it, I used to work on another Win7 station a few months ago and I had the same issue)

I think the reason is OS related as everytime I click on save, it “re-creates” the file from scratch… This is not much of a problem on small files… but I have scenes that are over 500MB each and it takes forever to save everytime (not that the scene unreliability is not enough!!!)

CorelDRAW X5 :: Slow Screen Update With Thick Pen Objects?

Nov 21, 2011

I have 2000 objects in my drawing and they all have outline pen widths that are abnormally thick, say 5000 mm. I'm using that method to export additional info with the AI file. Of course, I use Simple Wireframe view model. 

Whenever I change an object, X5 takes about 90% CPU for about 8 seconds,and during that time I can't do anything else with Corel Draw.

I suppose it is drawing somewhere and thick lines take too much time.If I change all the objects to Hairline, or I enable Manual refresh, things work smoothly.

Is there anything I could do to prevent X5 from drawing all objects somewhere? I've tried disabling Use Off-screen image, but that doesn't work.

I thought it was Windows Aero, creating taskbar thumbnails, but I suppose that happens only when the thumbnail is actually visible on-screen.

BTW, Corel 11 and Corel 7 don't care about pen thickness...

InDesign :: Screen Refresh Excruciatingly Slow All Of Sudden

Mar 17, 2014

Must have been something I installed earlier in the day or late last night because the way InDesign CC nows redraws the screen is painfully slow. It's true that an Upgrade has been applied this morning through the CreativeCloud panel? I'm on Windows 8.1 running 9.2 x64. This Dell XPS8700 machine has never disappointed. 16 gig of RAM, fast Nvidia video card, 7200 RPM hard drive. It's just zippy! But now, I don't know what could be wrong? I don't have other processes running in the background. I checked to make sure I have the latest drivers for my video card. I tried trashing the Prefs file. The only thing I have not tried is to restart the system?
 
Other than that, I suppose it's always possible to uninstall and re-install InDesign CC?

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: Working Slow On Windows XP?

Nov 11, 2013

We purcased X6 and installed on 3 PC. two are Windows XP and one has Windows 8 operating system.

X6 work fine and fast on Windows 8 system.

But both X6 on both Windows XP are nightmare. Just creating new document can take up to 10 sec. Printing is also very slow, but exporting simple JPG file knock-me down. It take half minute or more...

Previous we worked many year's with X4 on same PC's, now we format PC's, Install Windows XP with all service pack's and updates, reboot machine and install X6.

It is not possible to install Windows 8 on those two PC's, because they drive two machines, that only support Windows XP...

Windows XP are 32 bit, Windows 8 is 64 bit

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: Screen Redraw Rate Real Slow?

Windows 7 64bit
i7 -3770 @ 3.40
GeForce GTX 550 Ti 
16gigs ram

**********************************

Since running x6 my system takes an unrealistic time to refresh graphics.  I am working with a simple file and it takes 3 to four seconds to refresh after zooming in. My processor on CPU and Video card barely take a 20% hit. 

Is Corel not setup to use the resources available? Is there some sort of Mad Hatter trick to fix it?

Here is a shot of the file I am working on after a fresh restart.

Paint Shop Pro :: X4 Stuck On Register Screen AND Opacity Slider Slow

I just downloaded the trial version of paintshop pro x4. It worked for a while but the opacity sliders were extremely slow to respond. I thought this was my main problem but now every time I open the program it takes me to the register screen. When I register the screen goes white and nothing happens. If I close it the whole program closes. I have three emails confirm me for registering so I don't know why the screen pops up anymore... I was very happy to have more 16bit capabilities.

Photoshop :: Extremely Slow Print Dialog Response In CS4 (Windows 7 64bit)

Jan 3, 2012

It's a Q6700, 4GB, 2TB drives, Epson R2880 running Windows 7, 64-bit.  CS4 is very peppy, runs great, opens, closes, edits, NO PROBLEM.
 
UNTIL you decide to print.  Once you hit the print selection it takes a MINIMUM of 40 seconds for the CS4 print dialog to appear.  If you then hit the "page setup" button, it'll be at LEAST another 30 seconds before that appears.  Once they're up, you can navigate around and make changes, but once you hit the print button on the dialog it'll be another 10-15 seconds before it responds and if you specify "Print Preview" it'll be at least another 30 seconds before you get the preview.  Once it hits the printer, it prints fine.  There haven't been any software or hardware changes in weeks, except the weekly MS updates that get installed.
 
I've tried large images, and small images in case there was something CS4 was doing.  This process is this slow when printing a 4x6 greeting card or a 12 x 18 photograph.
 
What's interesting is this is a new phenomenon...  It worked FINE up until sometime last week.  Then suddenly, slow.......  Concurrently, the print dialog STOPPED DISPLAYING INK LEVELS.  The status monitor still displays them, but the printer dialog no longer does.
 
I've unloaded the printer and cleaned off every file I could find that appeared to be associated with an Epson print driver.  Went to Epson and got the latest, Windows 7, 64-bit set of drivers and status monitor and installed that.  No difference.  Also tried a new USB cable AND switched it to the other USB port on the printer and on the PC.  Nothing's made any difference......
 
If necessary, I can have her re-install CS4, but is there anything that should be done before we start clobbering major applications, or ever worse, the operating system?
