slow because of <?templateDesigner StyleID aped0/3?> ??

[beginnerX]

Dear all,

First, I remember reading some posts on solving bugs with LC Designer by removing lines :

<?templateDesigner StyleID aped0?>

<?templateDesigner StyleID aped3?>

I found my dynamic pdf when saved as xdp, got a hundred of above lines, should I remove it for better performance?

---------------------------------------------------

Second, I have done some tests that whenever I create a new dynamic form  (no matter complicate or simple)

and apply reader extension rights (no matter necessary or not). Then when I open the form in Reader 9.3 or Professional,

just a simple click will get hang for about a minute before back to normal, if I close it and re-open the form immediately, the hang almost disappear.

But when I open it again after closing for a longer time, the hang appears again. Actually it is difficult to deduce the behavior, any ideas on that?

Best Regards.

Yes, open the xdp file in an editor and use search&replace to replace all the lines with nothing.

I would use a hex editor (such as tiny hexer) instead of the windows editor or notepad, cause they will hang/crash on larger xdp files.

The hang of the apps may be a result of the repeating lines.

Aaah the memories... This bug is fixed in ES2.

Dear all,

I have removed all lines :

<?templateDesigner StyleID aped0> or

<?templateDesigner StyleID aped3>

but the hang still occurs

May I ask what is the difference between followings:

<?templateDesigner StyleID aped0?>

<?templateDesigner StyleID aped3?>

<?templateDesigner StyleID apcb1?>

<?templateDesigner StyleID apcb4?>

<?templateDesigner StyleID apbx2?>

<?templateDesigner expand 0?>

<?templateDesigner expand 1?>

I am using LC ES now and does it mean open the form using ES2  and save it can solve the memory problem?

Yes.

Hi,

just remove all the lines that repeated several times in the xdp.

Lines that appear only once, can stay as they are.

<?templateDesigner StyleID aped0?>

<?templateDesigner StyleID aped3?>

<?templateDesigner StyleID apcb1?>

<?templateDesigner StyleID apcb4?>

<?templateDesigner StyleID apbx2?>

<?templateDesigner expand 0?>

<?templateDesigner expand 1?>

Then reopen the xdp in Designer and save the form again.

Thanks all, actually those lines <?templateDesigner StyleID ....?>

are not repeated in my xdp, I found them one line only in each place they appear,

so I think they have nothing to do with the strange slow performance.

I am using LC Designer ES v8.2 with SP2, just wonder if it can improve by using LC Designer ES2 or 9.x or make no difference...

When you run ES SP2 then the bug should generally be fixed and not the reason for the performance problems.

Maybe a script in your form produces the problem.

Otherwise you can try ES2.

It can be installed parallel to ES.

Dear all,

I have installed ES2 and seems the long hang doesn't appear again.

Thanks all guys here!
