Re: large selections

["B Miller" <bmillerxsilist(at)gmail.com>]

In case anyone is interested, I found that the problem was with displaying the keyframes in the timeline. It makes sense really. In order to display the keys of 1000 objects in the timeline, XSI has to iterate all of the objects and all associated fcurves and compile a list of keys. Given a large number of objects, fcurves and keyframes (in my case, per frame plots for SRT!) this can take a tremendous amount of time. This feature is easily deactivated, fortunately.

cheers,

Brett

uh, yeah, that appears to fix the problem. Great! Thanks for that.

mm not tried this, and perhaps waaay oversimplifing things but is this not
an ogl issue?, ie all your selected objects have to be drawn white? have
you tried maximising the explorer window first before selecting?
