The hotspot editor is really laggy and it is very hard to move to the correct location. I remember that in version 4.1 it was smooth as butter, now I feel like I am always fighting it. Is there a plugin that I need to update or something? I have a good graphics card, but this thing is very difficult to manipulate.

Hi Dean,
In Pano2VR's settings what is the size of the Preview Tile Size and Preview Equirectangular Size which are found under the Images tab.

Pano2VR uses OpenGL to display the image used fir the Viewing Parameters, Hotspot Editor and Media Editor.
Could be the graphics driver?

Hi Dean,
Not seeing anything that would cause a problem.
Does it happen all the time?
Is there anything running in the background?
Do you have another computer to test with?
Have you tried reinstalling?
Updating display drivers?

I have an old Mac Book which has Boot camp running Windows 7. It has 4GB and Pano2VR is using 1915MB.
All I can think of now is send me an e-mail to support@ggnome.com and ill send you a windows cleaner, then you can try to reinstall Pano2VR.

I would recommend making a back up of any custom skins and templates if you have them saved to the Skins and Templates directories first.
