TIP: Why Xpages Designer responds sluggish when editing dominoView
If you’ve been using Xpages Desginer and strugling with slowness in a dominoView in design or source mode then I have a tip that might help speed things up.
Just to describe the problem a little more; anytime you select a design element or update text it takes anywhere from 2 min to 5 minutes to give you control back to the Lotus Notes Designer. I know this is never mentioned in any of the tutorials because they always give examples of small apps. I run into this when editing an existing xpages custom control that uses dominView tag. Anyway I finally disabled the “data palette” on the right side of the designer. For some reason it takes forever to make changes to xpages that use dominoView when the data palette is enabled and you are dealing with a view that has over 300 documents.
