HD54913: GSD / TRANSLATE / BAD PERFOMANCE WHILE MOVING THE CURSOR OVER G EOMETRY DURING TRANSLATE COMMAND.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• GSD / TRANSLATE / BAD BEHAVIOR WHILE
  MOVING THE CURSOR OVER GEOMETRY DURING
  TRANSLATE COMMAND.
  .
  SCENARIO:
  1.Clear all CATSettings and start CATIA.
  2.Open Supplied CATProduct.
  3.Expand instance node in specification tree.
  4.Expand PartBody in specification tree.
  5.Select MANIFOLD_SOLID_BREP #1017487 in
  specification tree.
  .
  OBSERVATION1:
  The selection in geometry area is good and correct.
  .
  6.Zoom in the geometry and select one of the edge
  of blue face.
  .
  OSERVATION2:
  An arrow is displayed in the geometry area.
  .
  7.Select MANIFOLD_SOLID_BREP #1017487 in
  specification tree.
  .
  OBSERVATION3:
  The selection in geometry area is bad. The display
  is like clippings. Though the delay in selection
  cannot be measured in time but can be found out
  very easily visually.
  .
  8.Double click on PartBody and select GSD
  workbench.
  9.Click on Translate icon. Translate dialog box
  appears.
  10.Move the cursor over the
  MANIFOLD_SOLID_BREP #1017487 in geometry
  area.
  .
  OBSERVATION4:
  The selection in geometry area is bad. The display
  is like clippings. Though the delay in selection
  cannot be measured in time but can be found out
  very easily visually.
  .
  EXPECTED RESULT:
  The behavior observed in OBSERVATION3 and 4
  should be same as in OBSERVATION1 of this
  scenario.
  .

Problem conclusion

• THIS PROBLEM WILL BE FIXED ON CATIA
  VERSION 5 RELEASE 18 GA level.
  NOTE THAT THIS PROBLEM WILL ALSO BE
  FIXED ON V5R17SP01 AND V5R16SP07.
  Additional Closure Information:
  .
  Incident Diagnosis:
  Bad performance when prehighlight an
  object.
  .
  Correction Explanation:
  Bad performance is due to the fact that a
  small arrow used as a visual feedback to
  ease edge selection is rendered multiple
  times whereas it is only necessary to render
  it once or not to render it at all if the
  surface to highlight doesn't need this
  visual feedback. Problem fixed.
  .
  Answer and By-Pass:
  none
