I have seen some videos of people doing stuff in the CK, and when they click the *All category in the object window, it opens up almost immediately. When I try to do the same, it takes a really long time (10-20seconds) and the CK is frozen during this time. That's REALLY annoying, so I don't use the *All menu because of this

So I'm just wondering were those videos I saw just my imagination or can you actually open the menu that fast?
In case it matters, I have a 3.2GHz IntelCore i7-2600 CPU, 8 GB of RAM and the CK is installed on my SSD drive.. So I'm thinking it's not a hardware issue!

the all category is kinda worthless unless you're already filtering by the field above that list. There's probably 10s or 100s of thousands of items to list and the 'all' category is going to show them ALL. If you're filtering, it will only show what you've filtered for.

if you're looking for something "forsworn" or "armor", even tho there may be 100s of entries, it's a filter + all is a must-have.

Ah right, that helped me solve the mystery. If I already had something typed in the Filter box, for an example: "fx", the *All menu loads instantly, viewing only those objects.

Thank you

yay! i'm a noob and I helped!
