Crazy pattern from lighting VW2023 SP7

[MGuilfoile]

Has anyone ever seen this (see attached image)? There is no floor in this perspective view; it is turned off. There are lights, however, and if I turn them all off the pattern disappears. This doesn't happen in all files and it doesn't seem to do any harm, but it is extremely annoying. Any ideas regarding what I should do to get rid ot it?

Thanks,

Hello,

You haven't given us much to go on, not least your rendering mode. It looks like a Shaded Render with Shadows set to 'Ground Only'. It might be a point light so you can troubleshoot that by selectively turning the lights off one by one via the Window>Palettes>Visualisation Palette.

We're also not privy to the model but those spiky shadows infer that there might be outlier objects far apart. Select your model and Edit>Invert Selection and see if that picks anything up that is far away. 

 

Cheers,

Peter
