My experience with the Documentation Center in 6.0 and 6.0.1 is that the first call to it is slow, but that after that things are faster at a given session. so could the problem be the initial loading of the Java interpreter, or some other Java-related initialization, and not just initializing the window per se? Then of course there's the issue of how else to handle this. One option is to write everything in a platform-dependent way and avoid a cross-platform tool such as Java entirely. But that has its down-side,too: increased time to program it, higher cost,.... alexxx.magni at gmail.com wrote: > It is just me, or the handling by Java of the new Function Navigator / > Virtual Book is terrible?
