At run time, you can also cache pictures that you open and then close.
When picture caching is enabled, the WorkSpace maintains a list of the most recently closed files. When you close a file, that document is placed on the list of most recently closed files. If this list of closed files exceeds the cache size, the first file closed is unloaded from memory and completely closed. However, preloaded pictures are not dropped from the cache. You can view a list of cached pictures by pressing Ctrl + Shift + C. The following figure shows the picture caching process.
How Picture Caching Works
NOTE: You cannot delete a picture that is closed into the cache. You must wait until that picture is dropped or flushed from the cache before deleting.
Picture Caching only functions when the WorkSpace is in run mode. If you switch to configure mode, the most recently closed cache is flushed and any files in the cache are fully closed. All preloaded pictures in the loaded state are then closed. If you switch back to run mode, pictures in the preload list are not loaded into memory.
If you disable picture caching, the most recently used cache is disabled, no pictures are preloaded, and all pictures are then fully closed when the file is closed.
