    Panel slow to load

    Sebastien Piconnier Community Member

      Hello,

       

      I've made a panel with a button that allowed to open pictures in photoshop. Theses pictures are inside a folder in "configurator-panel.assets". The size of the folder is about 32 mb.

      When i export this panel in photoshop as a CS extension, the panel load in about 8 seconds.

      I made export the same panel but without the 32 mb folder, the panel display within 2 seconds.

      Is there a way to speed up the display of the panel? It seems that everything is load at the start up.

       

      Regards.

          I noticed this too, I'm just playing with the Configurator for the first time this afternoon, and only got 2 buttons on it that don't really do much of anything yet.

          When I open the panel, it comes up blank and takes about a second for the contents to load in.

           

          I can kinda see the point of why its like that for 3rd party extensions though. Would need to be loaded up in active memory as opposed to loading it on demand,

          and that could conceivablly crash or dog out the whole of photoshop with poorly written 3rd exentions.

           

          This loading bevhiavour could still be improved though, at least have the background color not have to load in.

            I forgot to mention that before exporting as my panel as a CS extension, I set "Persistent" to Yes.

            The panel sould quickly display if unhide it  after loading it at the startup of Photoshop but it don't.

            I see that with a normal export the speed is correct

            I think that the panel check if all the files are signed and on the panel folder. My panel have 100 pictures included in a folder.

            Can someone of Adobe confirmed what i am saying?

            Will I have to try to rebuild my panel with Flex? I must learn Flex before:-(
