I have a greyscale image. It is a pencil sketch. I want to clean some stuff up. I click the eraser tool. Adjust the size. Click and drag. 10 seconds later the erase happens. This is a seriously bad lag. I am using a Logitech mouse. Firmware is up to date. Running Windows 10. Computer has a Geoforce RTX 3060 graphics card. Intel i7 13th gen cpu. 32 gigs of RAM. I am sure my computer has enough horsepower to run the eraser tool on a 200 dpi greyscale image. Not sure what is causing the lag. It also happens when using the brush tool.
Is this a laptop?
Desktop PC.
Ok I regularly use this feature with no issues so I have a few questions.
Is the brush size large?
Has the image had non destructive effects applied that had not been flattened?
What was your screen magnification?
My initial image is 200dpi, 10"x10", and grey scale. I tried opening the image in Corel Photo-Paint, and also tried the edit bitmap command from Corel Draw. Zoom is fit to screen. I click eraser tool. Brush size is 20. Tried erasing some small areas. I was using the mouse, Held down the left button, and dragged. A few seconds later the action happened on screen. Then the tool icon would skip around, not moving smoothly on screen. Same after doing an update to the Corel suite, which shouldn't matter, but gave it a shot.
That is pretty much what I experienced yesterday when I attempted to use the spot healing tool.
