How come my mouse movement speed changes when I go into Revit? Has anyone else noticed this? My mouse is fairly sensitive but as soon as I work in Revit my mouse is pretty sluggish?
Thanks,
AAron

Never seen a slowdown like that unless the entire computer is struggling.

It is not slugging it down that I can tell. I even have it open and right now my speed is quick but if I swap over to Revit it automatically slows down. It is weird.

Do you have any keyboard/mouse controller software that allows you to change settings for different programs? The Logitech software that came with my mouse has that option.

Here's something to test.
Does your mouse get slow if you have revit open in the background, maximized, but with something like notepad.exe, the calculator, or a file browser open above it?
The thing is, when you -minimize- revit, it drops all of its graphics demands on your computer, and runs in standby mode with a little processor demand, but that's it. It's not asking your computer to fill up your screen with a 3D model.
See the distinction? If it's a mouse speed issue, relative to what's open, then the mouse should be snappy and quick even when revits visible in the background, but if the mouse is slow, it's possible that you're asking too much of your video card.
You might look in options to see if anti-aliasing and Direct3D hardware acceleration are turned off. Or toggle them to see if it causes any change. Not all cards support acceleration.
