This is an old bug - predates Rhino 7 I think. A papercut, really:
When I use the COPY command and select YES for all three options (FromLastPoint=Yes UseLastDistance=Yes UseLastDirection=Yes), Rhino seems ‘slow’ - there’s a weird pause/delay between when an item appears on the screen and when I can click to place the next item. This makes it really slow to make a bunch of copies.
There is no delay when I select only one or two of the three command-line options.
I don’t see that delay here for the moment… in either V7 or V8. The copies come up as fast as I can click.
Hi Peter -
I’m also not seeing that here.
Does it happen when you start a new file from a factory-default template, create a simple rectangle, and make a bunch of copies of that?
Also, please run the Rhino SystemInfo command and copy-paste the result here.
-wim
Yes it does happen with new file & factory-default template.

I’ll try some things out & see if I can narrow down the issue. Maybe graphics settings? 2nd monitor?
