Hi, I’m using TD build 2025.32820 on Windows 11 and when I move the mouse over a Component Editor window the mouse pointer stutters and the framerate drops. This even happens in a fresh empty project. I can move the mouse over any other part of the UI and everything stays smooth. It’s only the Component Editor where I have encountered this problem so far.
My system:
Processor AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core Processor (3.80 GHz)
Installed RAM 64.0 GB
Graphics card NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 (24 GB)
Hello,
As a first step, make sure that all your drivers, including integrated graphic drivers, are up to date and that your machine is free of bloatware.
Make sure that TouchDesigner is fully up to date to the latest stable build available.
The Bulk Crap Uninstaller helps in identifying unwanted or unneeded software: https://www.bcuninstaller.com/
Find the latest driver for your GPU at Official Drivers | NVIDIA
or use Nvidia Geforce Experience Update Drivers & Optimal Playable Settings
You can also make sure that your integrated GPU is running on the latest version available via Intel Driver Assistant.
You can use the AMD Adrenalin if you have an AMD Integrated GPU, in minimal install mode, via Drivers and Support for Processors and Graphics
If your machine comes with a proprietary power management software (From Asus, Dell / Alienware.. etc), make sure that it’s setup properly to run TouchDesigner on the Nvidia / AMD DEDICATED GPU when plugged to power. Otherwise, it’s likely that TouchDesigner would run on the integrated graphics, hence it is important to also make sure your integrated graphics are up to date.
