Hi All

I am having an issue when trying to insert a JPG into the focus chart picture. It is taking significantly longer than usual.
The JPG is only 5mb but is taking well over a minute to insert.

I am running 6.0.43.420 on Mac OS 11.4 (Big Sur) on a 16" MBP 32Gb Ram etc etc.

Just wondering if this is expected behaviour on Big Sur

thanks

UPDATE - Work around is to open the focus image box then insert image. This however has not happened before only since upgrading to latest versions of LW and MAcOS

I don't understand "Work around is to open the focus image box then insert image". The two ways that I know of both require clicking the focus chart picture in the worksheet, that opens the focus sketch window. Then you can either drag and drop the .jpg onto the focus sketch, or choose an option from the Background pop-up menu.

How were you doing it?

Generally we drag the jpg onto the sketch image space on the worksheet area. So the Sketch window doesn't open up.
Up until that show there was no delay in doing it this way. The Image size has never impacted the performance and our camera etc has not changed.
The workflow as mentioned before is just slower and the only thing that has changed since is the OS version and the LW Build.
