Fonts and Program Performance

Post by AurochsDesign »

Hi all, noticed that recently anytime I click on an element with Text in it, the program performance/response is very slow - maybe a full 2 sec lag before the toolbar catches up. I did recently install a bunch of Google Fonts so im thinking that is the cause because otherwise the program is super snappy - clicking or double clicking any other object, image, grid, etc all good. Any tricks to deal with this? Could it be something else? thank you very much.

Even if you have installed a lot of fonts, the lag should only be the first time you click and element afteer that the fonts are cached.
So, the second time it woulds be a lot faster.

I am not aware of any issues with show behavior. I have approximately 100 fonts installed and it works quick for me, even the first time.

I have 1000s of fonts installed and never had any performance issues in any software in Windows 10 or 11.

I do not think it is directly related to WIndows 10.

Maybe your firewall or virus scanner is causing the issue?
Did you add webbuilder.exe to the exception list?
