    Is any one else suffering any of the following ?  I just want to protect my sanity!   This isn't viewport related THIS IS 3D IN DESIGN LAYERS.

     

    Created solid objects like roofs and floors either go "unsolid"  (despite solid OIP settings) or just literally disappear and will not return shutdown and start it again they reappear and re-solid themselves.

    Windows disappear in Open GL. Solution as above.

    Walls disappear with all their contents and you have to build them again.

     

    Messes with my head and my workflow. Not fun.

    Hi @Seth Thomas

     

    I had this. It's hard to pinpoint what solved it but deffo SP1.1 has resolved a number of rendering problems for me. Also the above instruction which @Jim Wilson will be aware of which might save an entire reload?. Hope that helps D

     

     

     

     

  3.  Each year I update my licences on each PC (always SP1! ) at this time of year and always forget to re-set something. I always say I will write it down but never do until this year. There are many things which can contribute to crashing, slow performance etc so here's my check list some of which is a contribution from the very helpful VW UK team and of course the amazing people on this forum. If any of this helps then I have saved somebody some grief! My graphics card stuff is Nvidea specific but I'm sure other software has the same options.   Hope this helps someone.

    Hi Matt yes windows 10 and SP1.  This afternoon I updated my driver in a last ditch effort to rule things in & out. To be fair the last driver update was less than a month old.

     

    I did manage to get the viewport (its not a section viewport) below left to clip-render in glorious render and then tried the one to the top (same render)

    You can see that viewport showing the section cut but also showing the whole model externally?

     

    It’s all quite random!

     

    When I’ve been trying to do section clip cube viewports the viewport image created is not the same orientation/image as the one I am trying to viewport! Bizarre!

     

    I have a call out with VSS UK so I will report back with any findings.....

  5. ok I'm back! I managed to get this to work 2 weeks ago and was mighty pleased. I was trying to do same today with an open gl perspective viewport and failed several times! I am no techy but at least 1 way I got this to work last time was put my stairs on a new stair class. Then I had to change the settings both in the VP object display and hidden object display as below and i got it to work ? (but have no idea why?) (i.e. what is object display and hidden obj display difference?) (why not hidden obj display only - which doesnt work?) I still have to say it's made my file crash a few times?
