Interface Options for Complicated Models

To improve the speed of the interface when dealing with complicated geometries, do one or all of the following:

Under Tools > Options > Modeler Options, on the Display tab:

1. Set Default View Render to Wire Frame. Wire-frame rendering is faster than shaded rendering.
2. Turn off Display UV Isolines. For models with curved faces, this will simplify the wire-frame display, so the rendering will be faster.
3. Turn off Visualize History of Objects. This will remove visualization of objects that are part of the model history. For large models, this is faster and uses less memory.

Under View > Visualization Settings:

• Use larger deviations to view curved objects in less detail.

Under Modeler > Import:

• Uncheck Check Model and Heal Imported Objects. This helps for complicated models: Validation and healing take considerable time for such models. Use this option to defer checking to a later stage (especially in cases where you know that you want to mesh the model as is).

Under Tools > Options > General Options, on the Project Options tab:

• Turn off Do Autosave or set the autosave interval to a larger value, for example, 50. Auto-save can be time consuming.
