Modeling structure browser multiple reloads.

[ThomIvancso]

Hello All,

I am doing some testing with Modeling 18.10 (M080) release and I noticed the when switching between Modeling and Annotator that the structure/drawing browser repaints (cycles) itself multiple times before filling in completely.

I have a single part and a drawing with the three standard views.

Dell M6700 Workstation Laptop running Windows 7.0 (64bit) 16gb ram, with a NVIDIA Quadro K3000M graphics card. NVIDIA driver is 10.18.13.6191.

Has anyone else come across this issue?

Thank you.

Regards,

Thom

Hello we have the same problem it is very annoying, have reported it to our support direct after upgraded to 19.0 but nothing have happened yet.

In our case the whole screen flickers.

Hello Max,

Thanks for the link to the SPR, however your first link points to a Creo Wildfire SPR. Could you recheck your link and see if it is correct.

Good catch!

Actually a copy/paste error (the last Digit was missing)

Hello Thom,

PTC has planned to fix it with 19.0M050

Many of our customers are really annoyed by the flickering introduced with  18.1M070 and 19.0M020

IMHO the problems have been introduced by a recent "Switch to GDI graphics" in CED.

btw 19.0M050 release is (currently) planned for end of July:

Hello,

the proposed workaround for the switch from Modeling to Annotation dosn´t work.

The only thing to avoid the flicker is to close down al Toolbars or to live with it
