Slow to switch to layout mode
I'm using a relativery large file of 120Mb.
If have created a new layout, but if I change the model and try to re-enter layout mode it take approx 15min to process the data.
Does anyone have any advice on improving this problem ?

RE:Slow to switch to layout mode
120MB is not a large part, I have parts over 700MB!

Layout instances displaying a large number of solids can take quite some time to process if they're HLR or HLD.  This is especially true of there's lots of complex geometry, like springs or helical threaded parts.  You might try setting all instances to wireframe while you're working, and only switching them to HLR or HLD when it's time to print it.

First time use Quick Open Toggle to open the Layout.
After that, switch all instances to wireframe.
As Dana wrote, switch to HLR before printing.
