TArchit Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 (edited) Does anyone know why my model looks fine in 2D but has suddenly disappeared in 3D. When I try to select the forms it partially appears as attached? I have not changed any of my render settings. My sense is that it is corrupt. I have set up identical design layers in a new file and copied the information across floor by floor. This works and makes it visible in 3D again, however everything in the model is a reference and therefore presumably I will have to re-reference it all. Am I heading in the right direction here? Are my assumptions correct? Edited May 18, 2017 by TArchit Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 (edited) I've come across this before but can't remember what I did to resolve. To begin with try quitting and restarting Vectorworks. P.S. this would be better placed in the trouble shooting forum. Edited May 18, 2017 by Christiaan Quote Link to comment
TArchit Posted May 18, 2017 Author Share Posted May 18, 2017 Thanks Christiaan. I have tried that. Can this be moved into that forum? Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 By a moderator I think, yes. I can take a look at the file if you want to message it too me. Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 (edited) Got your file and everything looks fine at my end. Check these settings: View > Clip Cube View > Class Options View > Layer Options View > Unified View View > Unified View Options My bet's on Clip Cube Edited May 19, 2017 by Christiaan Added Clip Cube 2 Quote Link to comment
TArchit Posted May 19, 2017 Author Share Posted May 19, 2017 I have transferred to a faster machine with a better graphics card and it seems to be okay now. I will check those settings if I experience the same problem again. Thanks Quote Link to comment

axhake Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 I have encountered similar problems with graphics disappearing when switching from 2D to 3D and also after complex 3D editing. The solution to fixing the issues was to: 1. Simply select the problematic graphics 2. Cut: Windows: (Ctrl+X) , Mac: (CMD + X) 3. Then past-in-place straight back into the file: windows: (Ctrl+Alt+V) , Mac: (sorry don't know the shortcut key combination as not a mac user ) I've found this normally fixes the issues.
