Navigating Soooo Slooooooow

Posted: Tuesday, 06/29/2004 -- by Kees Boon. Subject: Navigating Soooo Slooooooow

It's really annoying: lately, when I navigate in Scala Designer 3 through my folders via the 'open', 'add' or 'save' command, it is SO incredibly slow. Not just when I open really large folders or something, just going back to the desktop with only about 20 items on it, it takes about one minute to show. Does anybody know what's going on?

Hi,

Are you in Thumbnail-mode or in List mode?

I've only experienced this when running/forgetting-to-turn-off
another cpu-munching process.
This is especially noted in thumbnail mode.

If that's not the case - could it be as trivial as a fragmentation problem?

Hi Kees,

are you runnin Windows XP and do you have any shortcuts to a server (or other pc) on your desktop?

If yes, remove them and see what happens.

Best regards,

Hi Mike and Axel,

Thank you for your responses. It turned out to be one little shortcut that referred to a computer that was no longer in the network! That wasn't very clever of me... :-/

Now that I have your attention, maybe one of you knows the answer to a question a colleague of mine (Viktor) posted here recently. It's called "text crawl line distance" I believe. The problem is that a text crawl in my IC3 Designer has a different line spacing than the one I get out of my Player. It seems like all the subtle line spacing differences I built in the Crawl in Designer are completely bypassed by the Player. People keep telling me I should adjust my Player settings, but nobody tells me where I can change the line distance in Player. Because you can't..! Which settings, where??

Thank you in advance for your efforts!

Sincerely,

Kees Boon.

Hi Kees,

I received the script from NFGD and will check it asap.
I'll probably have an answer for you on Monday.
