Question

Epic 6 problem?

I'm not sure if it is me and the file I'm working or if I'm having a problem with Epic 6.

The file I am working with is fairly large (just over 3 meg with numerous file, text and graphic entities).

The problem I am seeing is that occasionally (not every time, but often enough) Epic 6 will lock up when I am trying to find a string of text using the 'find/replace' dialog box (NOT the FIND TAG/ATTRIBUTE). It also only seems to happen when I am searching "UP" the document (going back through the previous text).

Has anyone else has a similar problem? If so then I'll submit this as a possible bug they need to fix.

Thanks

Lynn

    Hi Lynn--

    You might try turning off gentext while you search to see if that helps. IIRC, Arbortext is sometimes slower scrolling up than down in terms of refreshing gentext, which might be explain the problem you are seeing.

    Thanks Clay,

    I'll give that a try though the problem is intermittent enough it may be difficult to determine.
