Re: 2D view is very slow / lagging up to 1s
Sorry for the many posts. I really want to support the issue resolution as I appreciate the potential of SH3D very much and would like to use it properly.

I think I could narrow down the issue to the settings / the used version of Java.

I installed several SH3D windows executable files from here:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/sweethome3d/files/SweetHome3D/

- SH3D v6.4.3 (from Microsoft Store), Java v1.8.0_202 64bit, Java 3D Version 1.6.1 -> Issue with 2d view.
- SH3D v6.1, Java Version 1.8.0_202 - 64 bit, Java 3D Version 1.6.1 -> Issue with 2d view.
- SH3D v5.7, Java Version 1.8.0_162 - 64 bit, Java 3D Version 1.6.0 -> Issue with 2d view.
- SH3D v5.5.2, Java Version 1.8.0_144 - 64 bit, Java 3D Version 1.6.0 -> Issue with 2d view.
- SH3D v5.5a, Java Version 1.8.0_144 - 64 bit, Java 3D Version 1.6.0 -> Issue with 2d view.
- SH3D v5.4, Java Version 1.6.0_51 - 64 bit, Java 3D Version 1.6.0 -> NO issue.

- SH3D v4.6, Java Version 1.6.0_45 - 64 bit -> NO issue.

The issue starts with SH3D v5.5a. There was a jump from Java 1.6 to Java 1.8.

Keeping the earlier findings in mind, it seems that there is an issue with SH3D/Java to efficiently render textures in the 2D view starting with SH3D v5.5a until now v6.4.3.

A) What would you suggest to do now to proof / fix / mitigate this issue?
B) Is it possible to use the newest SH3D executable Windows version with the right Java settings / Java version? How does it work? (short term solution)
C) Is it possible to integrate "better" Java settings / Java version into the Microsoft store version as I bought this one and would like to use it? (long term solution)
