Performance Slowdown in IRONCAD 2024

Performance Slowdown in IRONCAD 2024

If data that previously worked smoothly in earlier versions now feels slower in IRONCAD 2024, the cause may be related to the new [H-Dynamic] setting introduced in this version.
Please try the following workaround to improve performance.
Notes
The [H-Dynamic] feature was newly introduced in IRONCAD 2024.
For more information about H-Dynamic, please refer to the user guide below:

Procedure:

[1] Go to the [Visualization] tab and click [Realistic...].


[2] In the Realistic panel, under Dynamic mode, uncheck [H-Dynamic (Dynamically Adjust Details)].


To Set This as the Default Setting

By default, the [H-Dynamic] option is enabled.
If you prefer to have it disabled by default, follow the steps below to create and save a new template.

[1] Open a new scene and uncheck [H-Dynamic (Dynamically Adjust Details)].


[2] Save the scene as a template file using [Save As].

Notes
Make sure no parts or assemblies are present in the scene before saving.

[3] Move the saved template file to the following directory:
C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Roaming\IronCAD\IRONCAD\<※26.0>\ja-JP\Template\Scene\Metric
(※:The number varies depending on the IRONCAD version.)
Notes
Ensure IRONCAD is closed when moving the file.
Please make a backup of your newly created template file.

[4] Create new Scene.
 

[5] Select your created template and click [Set Selection as Default Template].


Notes
After setting it as the default template, you do not need to select it manually each time.
When using [New Scene], the saved template will automatically be used.

Warning
Even if you save older version data using the above method, when opened in IRONCAD 2024, the [H-Dynamic] option will still be enabled by default.
For files created in earlier versions, you will need to manually disable H-Dynamic for each individual file.
