Express View mode introduces a far greater speed in all the primary editors by reducing some of the more memory-intensive, dynamic features. To activate Express View, simply toggle the switch in any of the editor settings:

 

 

If you prefer to set Express View as your default preference, go to Setup…Project Preferences…Editors…Default Editor View.

The main features that are affected by Express View are:

  • Property dialog boxes now pop up in a new window that must be closed to return to the rest of the interface:




     
  • Surfaces or objects selected in the LDE or NSCE are not highlighted in Layout Plots or 3D Viewers.
  • Intelligent column display is disabled.
  • Columns cannot be re-ordered.
  • Column widths cannot be automatically adjusted.
  • Auto-fill suggestions are disabled. For example, when setting a surface type, a drop-down menu will not appear.
  • Bookmarks cannot be edited.
