We are observing a delay in loading, specifically sequential loading of views (ImageViewerControl) when using WinForms. Whereas when we use WPF, we do not see the delay.

Please see the attached video of VideoPreview depicting the issue using WinForms and WPF for your reference.

Is there a way to overcome the delay or handle sequential loading using WinForms?

There are several release notes where it is mentioned that the samples are updated to WPF to secure better performance.

It is recommended to use WPF and to rewrite WinForms plugins to use WPF.
