Anyone running Creo 3 on MacBook and Apple 27" display - hows your graphics?
I know its not a supported configuration, so please don't tell me that.
I am running Windows 10 (not supported by PTC) a Retina MacBook Pro early 2013 (not supported by PTC), which runs Creo just fine so long as its on the built in display. (15.4" color display with 2880x1800 native resolution - aprox 5.1Mpixels)
When I plug in the external monitor on a Thunderbolt connection, (2560x1440 resolution - aprox 3.7 Mpixels) so in theory about 1/3 less pixels, Creo3 M060 the pan, rotate etc are incredably "laggy" and jump in big steps. It seems to make no difference if I use the
I just reactivated my SolidWorks license and for comparison exported a STEP file from Creo3 to SolidWorks. It rotates fast and smoothly with no 'tweaking' of graphics settings.
I have tried the obvious stuff
- updating drivers
- changing shade quality to low
- changing line quality to low
- switching off all datums
- trying wireframe etc - yes, that's right, even in wireframe it runs like a dog!
Are there any users out there running the same or similar "common" in the real world setup - but not in the PTC Creo one - who have similar issues they have solved. If so, how did you do it please?
Thanks
Stephen
