2205.0. "V2.7 Create Message Window init is slow" by GIDDAY::BACOT () Tue May 20 1997 04:26

    
    TeamLinks V2.7 eco2
    WFW V3.11
    466d2 MT

    The first time that MAIL, Create Message...  is invoked during a 
    TeamLinks session it takes approx 14 seconds to bring the screen
    up.  After that it comes up almost immediately.  
    
    This happens even if I am only using local mail, no primary mail
    file cabinet selected.
    
    I've tested this on V2.7 and am seeing similar results as the customer.
    I haven't tested this for V2.5 but the customer is saying that it
    is taking a significantly longer time to load on V2.7
    
    Does anyone have an explanation for this.
    
    Thanks,

The reason for this delay TeamLinks is testing
each font associated with the printer to verify
it is a valid font. The default printer the customer
is using must have a large list of fonts associated
with it thus causing the delay. 

Engineering is currently looking at a quicker
way of verifying the font list at startup of create
message for V3.0.
