Bug Description
Hello :-) Please add feature in "View / Display Mode" to work on "bounding box" or "thumbnail" only as this will increase speed for higly complex vector graphics such as PCB design. As for now even "outline" takes dozen of seconds after move operation, while it is not that important to actually see the content of the image/group. This happens for example when creating PCB production matrix. I had similar proposition in past when all elements were marked after group selection, so this is similar request to yet increase the speed of display/edit for even more complex graphics. Maybe it is possible to use "thubnail" of the graphics/group to operate/edit on and use real image data to save result. This "thumbnail" will also allow and differentiate graphics as opposed to "bounding box" only and still increase speed comared to "outline", but the bounding box with some number/code (to differentiate two images and their copies) inside should also suffice... Tank you :-)
Best regards,
Tomek Cedro
