More Excel 2007 Speed Issues
Hello, all. I am just a lowly programmer/physicist, but I think I have a hunch concerning the problem. The new Excel charts look nice, but all the graphics enhancements are the problem. If you use the ribbons to modify the charts, the update speed is a little more reasonable, but still sluggish. The problem can be seen from the use of overlay menus. Modifying a chart by right clicking on it makes the chart refresh its drawn area more, I guess, so everything slows. The ribbons allow the chart to refresh once. Again, I think the problems with the whole suite are graphics. All the font/graphic smoothing to make things look more like a Mac are nice, but they are extremely inconvenient if work cannot be done. I don't like Macs, but if I have to upgrade to Office 2007, I would get one in a second. Microsoft messed up big time. They dropped winhlp32 from their operating system, and now they have royally messed up Office. If this trend continues, users will choose a different office suite (like Open Office) just so they can get stuff done. *** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com *** |
