Support Questions / Re: More graphics on a page the slower the feedback

Have you copied the code from the MainForm onto page 2?

I had not done that.. I have never looked at the vb code I only use AdvancedHMI graphically.  It seems obvious now. 

This change has appeared to have sped things up, thanks.

Should I also copy over the ".NET does not close..." code from the MainForm to the other forms ?

Support Questions / More graphics on a page the slower the feedback

« on: April 24, 2021, 09:36:20 PM »

I have read a few other discussions but not sure if they relate to my issue.

I have two pages (Visual studio 2019 talking Modbus/TCP to a Productivity 1000 PLC) one page (Page 1) has one button (Light 1 ON/OFF) and the second page (Page 2) has 20 buttons, the first button being the same as the button on page one (Light 1 ON/OFF).  Both pages the button responds as expected to the PLC the difference being that on Page 1 the button ON/OFF feedback (Green luminated light) is instant while on Page 2 it can take a few seconds.

I edited Page 2 by simply drawing one big black box over all of the graphics except the first button and found that it responds as quick as page one.  So that rules out anything to do with the PLC.

Connected via Ethernet or Wifi doesn't make a difference.  I have run the application on both slow and fast computers and it does not seem to make any difference.

Is there anything I can do to try and speed up the button ON/OFF feedback when there are lots of buttons on a page ?
