Lag

Grrr! I think I'm having more trouble working with DAZ 4.9 than any other product since I started in the mid-2000's. I've been working on a seen for a few days, and all of a sudden it started lagging. I haven't added any new objects, only moving lights and modifing poses. The redraw time moving around the scene makes it impossible to work with. Often, I don't even see textures. Same thing happens with a new scene. The one thing I have noticed is an icon on the main screen that looks like a box cut diagonally. On the top is a + and on the bottom is a -. The icon is next to the display the drawing style icon. I've also noticed a "iray verbose" message on the bottom of the screen. How do I get rid of this bloody thing?

THanks

It sounds as if you have switched to nVidia Iray preview mode, and your system is truggling to support it. You may have hit ctrl 0  (or cmd 0 on a Mac) - ctrl 9/cmd - 9 will switch back to Texture Shaded mode.

Thanks, Richard. I have no idea how I did that, but I'm now a happy little man

It's very easy to hit the key combo by mistake - a lot of people do it. All the number keys pressed with a modifier (ctrl or cmd) select a drawstyle.
