Thank you Harold. Of course that works perfect.

Hi All. Bear with me. Let's say you have a VERY complex model. Hundreds of items in the design explorer. And, at the end of the day you decide to cut away the top two thirds of the model, leaving only the lower third. I cut away the upper two thirds of the model because I no longer want it. But...

I hope so. I'm sort of changing my work flow a bit by using more sub assemblies to limit the down time. It seems to not lose constraints for small assembly files. Or, I sort of just try and NOT move the part I just edited after returning to the assembly. I should note that it doesn't matter if...

Hi All. I work with a number of different assembly files and all of them suffer from the same loss of constraints once the part counts get higher than a few dozen, and sometimes as few as a dozen parts. I was able to recreate the issue while on a zoom call with support, so they saw first hand...

With all due respect to Oilman, I had no sluggish performance issues until V25, and then I did. And then they issued a Service Pack for it and that fixed the sluggishness. That said, I'm more than happy to admit I'm no expert CAD designer (a pretty good CAD HACK perhaps?), and I'm sure almost...

I just installed the Service Pack1 for V25. Like Craig, it solved the stuttering and other speed issues I was encountering. As a person who mostly works in large assemblies this quick fix is very very much appreciated. Thank you team Alibre. The loss of constraints issue is still there (since...

I very much look forward to SP1. Any idea when it might be out? Great news.

I feel your pain Weppler. Yes, working inside assembly files is almost unusable in V25. Just flipping around a model (in preparation for constraining it) is basically impossible. The lag and stutter makes rotating the models a real crap shoot. My solution is to break all my models into MUCH...

Simon. This is EXACTLY what I'm experiencing. I also have a thread going on sluggish behavior. And loss of constraints in a larger assembly.

Thanks David. I tried this on my laptop and it didn't make any difference in speed regardless of which processor I assigned. Again, this all started with V25.

Great suggestion David. In my case I went from V24 to V25. I did not download V25 BETA.

Hi Harold, I have all this set correctly too, I’m pretty sure.

Yes indeed Craig. I’ve got the graphics settings dialed in right and the Alibre Display settings degraded severely, and still I’m encountering what you described. For me V25 is basically unusable for large assemblies.

Rotating an unconstrained part (from within a large assembly) is extremely sluggish. Thank you.

Zooming in and out isn't nearly as fast as it used to be in V24 either. Thank you.

I installed the new MSI NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 VENTUS 3X LHR Overclocked Triple-Fan 8GB GDDR6 PCIe 4.0 Graphics card but its still sluggish. I can twirl the model really fast but moving inserted and unconstrained parts in an assembly is super sluggish. Before the upgrade (to V25) I could grab...

Anyone have an opinion about running this new card to help boost performance? Thank you! MSI NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 VENTUS 3X LHR Overclocked Triple-Fan 8GB GDDR6 PCIe 4.0 Graphics Card

After installing V25 my large assembly files are VERY sluggish on my fastest desktop computer at the office. On my laptop it was also very sluggish but improved greatly after I made sure the program was using the graphics card, not the integrated graphics. Anyone else suffering from this? Also...

I would add the following to what Max said. If you want to edit a part within an assembly (assuming the assembly file is open), regardless of if you use Edit Here, or if you use Edit in Separate Window, and if you want to restore the constraints you might have lost after editing the part, then...
