Very slow opening of the designer

Hello,

we're using the latest version of FR 6.

Lately we are having big problems with opening the designer. We have reports that have multiple datasets, maybe 10 and some have more than 100 attributes. If we open such a report, we wait for over one minute for the designer to open. Then it also takes a long time to open the memo for editing. In general, working in the designer is very slow. Printing and previewing are without problems.

Would you have any tips for us on what to look for? We are retrieving the data from a Firebird database, but it's not at the speed of SQL queries.

Thanks for any advice

Jan

    One month without an answer? Can I ask for some support? I would expect more support for paying customers :(

    Use https://cpanel.fast-report.com for support

    FR 5 and later scan all datasets to get fields' types. It needs some time for this. You may modify FR's sources

    comment ds.GetFieldList(FieldsList); in the frxDataTree.pas

    There are some improvements in the latest FR VCL 2025.1 to speed up FR Designer. Try FR VCL 2025.1

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
