only solidworks part is running slow

Shoval Zvulun Feb 28, 2019 7:34 PM

hey, I'm using SolidWorks 2018 and for some reason every part that I'm working on is running really slow it doesn't matter which part. I even tried opening a new part and sketching something simple, lowering the image quality but nothing works the weird thing is that assemblies are working just fine and real smooth even complex ones.

I have a brand new graphics card Sapphire Radeon NITRO+ RX 590 and I'm using windows 10

I don't know what else to do please help me

Does it run any better when you enable "Use software OpenGL"?

Your graphics card is unsupported so is likely the root cause of your problems.

Hello Shoval,

try to run SOLIDWORKS with SOLIDWORKS RX.
Try both safe mode.

I've tried enabling "Use software OpenGL" but it didn't help

  Were all of these slow Parts created with the same template? If yes, maybe it's corrupt.

    It is good way to clue. Generate part files on new templates. Check you have default templates in C:\ProgramData\SOLIDWORKS\SOLIDWORKS 20xx\templates
    
    If no, delete all paths in Files Locations->document templates->ok
    Next click Create New file.
    
    Check behaviour.

      Back up existing templates first, just in case...……….

        yup always recommended generate back ups
        
        Completing the above answer: If you have default templates - back up it to safe location and delete all templates in this path. Next generate new and check Behaviour.
