On my MacBook Pro using the Generic RGB does speed up zooming, but gives everything a darker look. Using the sRGB profile looked better, and still improved the zooming.
@trent Is there some science behind why the color profile affects LayOut’s zooming performance?
I had a thought that maybe if I calibrate my Screen using my Spyder 5 Pro, creating a Profile, that this might help.
Calibration all good and Profile Created.
However, the Zooming in Layout returns to the same dead snail as with the Standard iMac Profile.
Looks like I’ll be using sRGB when using Layout. At least I now have a calibrated Screen, useful for any image and texture matching work anyway. I’ll just have to switch between the two.
Was showing someone the difference in zooming speed with the different profiles, and did a test when set to Vector. Zooming in vector was smoother with any profile than Raster its with the best profile.
That somehow makes sense to me, like macOS its having to work harder on altering the color profile of bitmaps, if only because it’s a lot more pixels to fix. As you can imagine, Hybrid its also slower.
Just wanted to mention it as an option to getting smoother zooming.
Theres always been a difference in my Older MacBook Pro and new iMac, (iMac slower, ridiculous really as it is way more powerful than the MacBook Pro, which has an integrated GPU).
Trying to solve another problem now of sorting the Skalp License, as it’s just thrown me out and I can not use Skalp at all.
Looks relatively good - there’s a link in DaveR’s post above to where you can post your results and see others. Mine was only 27fps on a medium powered late 2015 iMac with an i5 3.2GHz processor.
