Moving the Setup window or the Viewport?

The setup window...
Are you using a single graphics card for both rendering and as your Window display adapter? Or do you have 2 or more adapters in your PC?

[EDIT: I would be interested yo know if this can be reproduced. I don't have any scenes which take long enough to voxelize to be really able to test it].

I hava a Radeon 5750 for windows display and a GTX 650 Ti dedicated to Octane. If you can I can send you (wetransfer) a model that I made for a contest (with no luck) to play with it.

For the quality of work you are producing, you deserve a better card :-)

That would be great - thank you - I can try to reproduce the issue then.

[EDIT: I have noticed even with 2 graphics cards, ArchiCAD can slow down whilst rendering if you are in OpenGL mode. Changing to Internal Renderer speeds everything up again.]

I tell to my wife that she must buy a better card but... :?
Archicad is not too much slow in my machine, at least without solar shadows.
I will send you the .PLA

I just found a large scene someone had sent me and loaded 10 times moving the setup window, but could not get a crash. It would be interesting to see if you can reproduce it on your PC before sending the file.

I have desactivated the "hardware acceleration in 2d" in the archicad enviroment and the "crash" have gone. I think that the crash appear when I put the radeon like primary video card... until this I only have the gtx 650 ti, and no crash.
