Very slow Customize Ribbon dialog in ORD

I've found an issue where an edited ribbon dgnlib crashes on opening. Eg. if I save ribbon edits in a dgnlib specified in the Workspace GUIDGNLIBLIST and try to reopen it it crashes, while edits saves to Personal.dgnlib are fine.

I suppose we can only write to Personal.dgnlib for ribbon customisation for now I suppose?

ok finally resolved it - turns out my ORD icon had compatibility mode set to "Windows 8" and this seemed to cause the Customize Ribbon dialog to be so slow. Not sure why it was reacting this way, but all good now. Thanks guys

Thanks Ian, I tried that with no luck and went one step further and uninstalled it, deleted the ORD folders in users appdata local, programdata and program files and reinstalled. It is unfortunately still happening.

Mark just as something to try can you exit ORD, then back up
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Bentley\OpenRoadsDesigner\10.0.0\prefs
specifically anything with naming starting personal
delete anything with naming starting personal and try again

Thanks

Ian

Unfortunately still no luck.

Tried running as Administrator, different Workspace, no Workspace, new empty dgnlib, new dgn, etc. And still the same...

Mark,

I've just had a quick play with customising the ribbon, just very basic stuff like adding Tabs and adding buttons moving things around, and its working pretty much instantaneously for me. I'll have a look at some more advanced customisation.

Also, I am customizing the ribbon to popup with the horizontal geometry tab when I select horizontal geometry and vertical geometry tab when I choose a profile element, which works quite well (like Civil3d) using named expressions but adding in the "ribbon rebuild" command takes 5 mins (more like 7-8 mins) to complete.

Any help would be appreciated.
