Annotation Editor is very slow to edit any symbol or Annotaion

[MANIK824]

Can anyone tell me why my Annotation Editor is very slow to edit any symbol or Annotaion which was very easy in NX5? Btw I'm using NX7.5 and Is there any possiblity to retrieve the same Nx5 annotation editor since it was very simple to edit?
Thanks,
Manikandan

To answer your last question first; NO, there's no way to go back to the obsolete NX 5.0 style text editor.

That being said, I'm not sure what you mean by NX 7.5 being 'very slow' when editing symbols. Are you talking about actually editing an existing symbol or just adding one to the string of text which you're entering? The reason I ask is that I don't really see any difference in the 'performance' (speed) of the code whether I'm using NX 5.0 or NX 7.5. Granted, NX 5.0 had a sort of simplified limited text editor which would come up initially and which, if you wished to do more extensive text editing, you'd have to open the secondary and more comprehensive editor, while in NX 7.5 (the change was actually made in NX 6.0) when you open the text editor is goes directly to a full-blown comprehensive editor with all the various options available without having to go to a different dialog. Other than that, I don't see how what we did has actually changed anything, other than saving you an extra menu pick whenever you wanted to get to the rest of the test editor options, something which our studies showed that people tended to do a lot, so we replaced TWO DIFFERENT text editors with just one, but this should have had no effect on how fast the code which creates/updates symbols/annotation executed.
