Component Selection Animation

Brandon Verkist Feb 5, 2013 7:50 PM

I am running Solidworks 2012 on a two year old computer. It works great except for one thing, whenever I move my mouse over an object to select it, there is an small animation that plays. My computer does not play this very quickly and I would like to shut off the animation. Is there a way to do this? It would make things run much more smoothly for me.

Welcome to the forum. I'm not a hardware expert by any stretch of the imagination, but my guess is that may be a graphics card issue. If you will post your system specs I'm sure some of the other members can offer some insight.

Edit: I see Anna responded. She is one of those hardware experts that I was referring to.

Can you describe the small animation? Maybe get a video with your phone and post on the forum here.

I am trying to imagine what is even happening on your system that would cause an animation to play.

Cheers,

Anna

You should be able to use a screen capture program like CamStudio to make a video of it also. Sounds weirdo...
