Keyed input for source member path is very slow to accept the data.

[JoeCharlesMorgan]

👉🏻 Hello, Am using VS for IBM i. When using command CRTL + ALT + O to open a source member the entry box where the path is keyed is very, very slow to accept my keyed input. It's almost like it is buffering. If I have a typo I have to wait a while to be able to backspace, because it has not finished accepting the rest of my keyed information. Other users in my office do not have this issue.

Thanks!

Hey @JoeCharlesMorgan

Are you able to share a video of what you are seeing?

[JoeCharlesMorgan]

Hello, I tried to upload a .MOV video but it fails. Any alternative way to load the video?

Below is the error. The file size is 318 MB (48 seconds), which i would not think is too large.

Failed to upload "IMG_5958.MOV"

@JoeCharlesMorgan Perhaps box, dropbox, or YouTube can be alternatives.

[JoeCharlesMorgan]

I have replied to the email from yesterday with the attachment. Please confirm if received that way.

Here is the youtube link.

@JoeCharlesMorgan Thanks for the video, that really made a big difference for us.

Any chance you can give a rough estimate of how many members are in that source file?

[JoeCharlesMorgan]

Hello, There are 5590 members within the ITMB490/QRPGLESRC file. ITMB490 is our main production library so there will always be many members present in this library. The same would be said for the QCLSRC, QRPGSRC, and QDDSSRC source files. Thanks!
