Thanks Mark. I am having the client give it a try and will let you know 
how it goes.

Performance issues, perhaps Windows 7 related

2010-10-04 Thread David Beck


Hello,

I have had two clients report serious performance problems with a 
LiveCode standalone application on Windows 7, 32-bit machines. Dialogs 
and windows take several minutes to open, when usually they take only 
seconds. The same standalone (with the same data) works fine on other 
machines. I have never encountered this issue before, and since these 
two cases where both on Windows 7 I wonder if the problem is related to 
Windows 7.


Has anybody else experiences this issue or have any ideas about what 
could be the cause?


Thanks very much!

Try upgrading the Win7 video drivers (!)

I don't know the cause, but I also have a client who reports that on 
Win7 nothing happens when he clicks either of two buttons that call 
ask file or answer file dialogs. Given what you said, I wonder if 
nothing happens really means nothing happens for a long time until I 
get bored and quit.

Wow, who woulda thought? Video driver issues cause file dialog problems? 
I believe you, but I can't imagine why that would be. Any idea?

Absolutely none. Just passing on what I've been told.

I wrote it down in my Weird Tales and Strange Associations diary. Thanks 
though. I've passed the info to my client. He didn't even blink.
