Toogle to layout mode takes too long
I have quite a complex assembly and when I make the simplest of changes to one of the components the switch to layout mode can take 20 mins. (Processing Data... Please wait)
Is there any way to avoid this ?

RE:Toogle to layout mode takes too long
Quick Open Layout might be what you are looking for. It allows to toggle between Model Mode and Layout Mode without reprocessing the layouts. Then you can hit the Re-Process Layut button to reprocess layouts, but that will take time...

Also, the type of rendering can influence the time KC needs to reprocess layouts.
You should avoid the Advances Precise Hidden Lines Rendering as it take much longer to reprocess...

Yes, by default I always use "Precise hidden lline rendering". This is because the "Hidden line rendering" doesnt alway allow me to dimension from points/lines etc.. that I need ?
Precision also shows curves in their true shape and not jaggered.
