Please post the necessary information to understand the issue. Thanks

Hi Japhy, this has been talked extensively, I believe no extra info is required.

Why is Rhino so bad at dealing with materials?

I am talking about UX, UI and performance. Performance: 1.It takes ages to load the materials. I don’t know what happens under the hood but of all the 3d programs I use Rhino is the only one struggling to load the materials. It gets specially unworkable with long lists of materials. 2.Scrolling the list is practically impossible. 3.Deleting materials also takes AGES and I just experienced multiple crashes after waiting 20 minutes for Rhino to DELETE ALL materials in the file. 4.Even with on…

Material Tab and thumbnail preview being extremely slow

The material tab is extremely slow. When I hover mouse over an material it takes almost a second or 2 for the material to highlight. Disabling material thumbnail preview helps a little bit but still very very slow. Didn’t have this issue in Rhino 7… Does anyone else have this issue?

Slow performance in material editor

I don’t care about UI. I have set it up to be close to V7 and I use custom shortcuts mostly. V8 is terribly slow compared to V7 and, knowing I have to be learning it, I don’t have the patience and I can’t afford wasting my time. With each V8 session it takes 30 min or so before I go back to V7. Anything related rendering is absolutely no-go zone (materials, environment, mapping etc) and it’s pity because I like the new push-pull and some new additions. I keep explaining myself that reason is…

I suspect the copy to clipboard issue has to do with materials as it often happens with files with a lot of materials.

I already took the time to record a video showing the issue. Also other people in this thread have corroborated it happens in their systems too.
