NX New sketcher delay when starting a sketch

New sketcher takes approximately 5 minutes to enter for new and existing sketches.

This issue is known to impact users with a proxy configuration and potentially other network settings. The issue can occur when starting NX and displaying the Welcome Page or when the system attempts to display new user introduction content, such as with a new user to NX and to the new Sketcher.  This problem has been fixed in NX 1980.

If any such delays are experienced in release 1926 or 1953 there is the following environment variables can be use as workarounds. UGII_WELCOME_PAGE=<any value or 'none'> i.e. UGII_WELCOME_PAGE=none

Or in NX1953, the following will keep the Welcome Page, but resolve the delay:

UGII_WELCOME_PAGE=https://docs.sw.siemens.com/documentation/external/PL20200507135732916/en-US/static/welcome/nx/background.html

UGII_SUPPRESS_DEFERRED_MESSAGE_DIALOGS=1

This will prevent the onboarding dialogs from displaying and eliminate the delay entering Sketch.
