Redraw happens too frequently

jigsawman

I am not sure why this has happened but the redraw feature has started to happen way too frequently. In fact it is almost every 30-45 seconds and is becoming a real pain. It slows me down only because I have to wait each time. I have the little box unchecked on the sheets menu where it asks to redraw on OK. I do not know of any other settings that could be turned on for this. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

It sounds like you draw your maps with sheet affects activated. If that is the case you will never experience any smooth work with CC3. Always work with sheet effects turned off and turn them on to check the result and when you are done and want to export the map. If however you don't have sheet effects activated I have no idea whats happening.

You can also try this: Type RDOFF at the command line at see whether that makes a difference in redraws.

Also, does this happen on one specific map, or any new one you create too?

Clercon - Thanks that is something I can adjust.

Ralf - It happens on all maps. I will try the command you give and reply back when i am at that machine.

Turned off sheet affects. That helped. I guess being a noob means I run the program in the most resource heavy mode I can duh!

Actually, I think being a noob means losing sleep, missing meals, and forgetting what your family looks like while you develop your mapping skills.
