SLOW mat palette

[Jpjapers]

Im not sure if its because im working on a big scene but every time i open the medit window the swatches are all black squares (yes corona is set as the renderer) and to create a new blank material takes up to 15 seconds of hanging before it does anything.
My machine is pretty high spec so its not likely a hardware issue.
Any ideas?

Thanks
Jack

Which version of Corona?
There is already a similar report in our support portal, so we are interested in looking into this.

Yeah no problem. Its a big scene. would you require textures?

depends on how fast is your internet, they could very well be the factor slowing everything down. Our dropbox uploader can handle 10gb ;)

Theres alot of them and my work internet isnt great. The scene isnt that big so it should be good on the dropbox. Ill see how big the overall file is.

For the other user resetting 3ds Max user preferences seems to have done the trick:

Doesnt seem to have worked for me. The material previews are taking a long time especially in multi subs

Still happening in RC5?
