Archicad 27 - Slow GDL Window

ShaunTaylor

Hi,

 

Is anyone else experiencing extremely slow speeds and lags with the new GDL tool in Archicad 27?

 

I am experiencing this when I have 2 object tabs open and I try and write in any of the scripting windows. Copying and pasting script from one object to the other is probably the biggest lag that happens. I am using Windows 11, not sure if this is an OS problem, hardware problem or simply a bug in Archicad 27.

 

Cheers,

Shaun.

Is there any update on Graphisoft's end? Does anyone know if this is an issue with Archicad 28 or 29 as well?

 

Also and update from my end. When using Archicad via Microsoft Remote Desktop. The GDL window is painfully slow even with just 1 object open.

I am surprised that AC even works properly for you using Microsoft Remote Desktop, as last I checked, RDP did not support DirectX which is required for AC...

I am led to believe from my IT specialist that DirectX and OpenGL can be enabled via changing some configurations on the host machine, RDP app and the graphics driver app. DirectX and OpenGL appear to be working on my end.

Guess your IT specialist found some way to force AC to launch with DirectX, or maybe there has been an update to it with Win11. I was needing to use a 3rd party remote app to launch AC, but while that worked, the performance over RDP was horrendous that I just stopped using it for AC work...

 

Other than the GDL IDE, AC is performing fine over RDP? Maybe something else is not initialising properly over RDP?

RDP is just a terminal. The host machine has to be equipped with appropriate video card and then the connecting one just works like a remote monitor. the only thing important is the fair internet connection.

Ah, did not realise it was updated with Win10/Server2016. Pretty sure we were still running Server2012 when I last used RDP... Only just recently finished changing everything over to Win11...
