When you are working with files that Stylus Studio must open through network connections that might be slow, you might not want Stylus Studio to automatically check for modified files. Turning off this option can improve XML editing performance.
The Options dialog box appears.
The Application Settings page of the Options dialog box appears.
Alternatively, you can select Disable check on hidden files, which allows Stylus Studio to skip these files. Hidden files are files that are in the Stylus Studio project or the Other Documents folder but are not currently open in Stylus Studio.
