### Rendering {#rendering}

Hardware and driver issues may cause performance problems when running Studio Pro. These issues can appear in form of dialog boxes opening and closing much more slowly than expected, and general slowness of the UI. If case the hardware problems cannot be solved, it is possible to mitigate these issues by turning the **Enable software rendering mode** setting on.

For Web Content, you can select **Auto**, which enables software rendering mode automatically when running on Parallels or another virtual machine.

Enabling this setting requires a restart of Studio Pro to take effect. Running the application with this setting on may increase the CPU usage.
