      Hi !
      I don't know if that had been signaled before (I hope so !!) :
      On large drawings (3km/3km for example), when trying to zoom in on details, graphic bugs... Sorry I can't explain more because of my poor english πŸ˜„
      Here is an example : Sans titre 5.jpg
      Procedure :
      1 - Draw a rectangle (1000m / 1000m)
      2 - Draw a box (1m / 1m / 1m) on this rectangle (or elsewhere !!)
      3 - Zoom in until you see largely the box (and the bug πŸ˜‰ )

      Frenglish at its best !

        Not sure this is a bug... I'd say it's an OpenGL issue/limitation...
        This is also known as the FOV issue and you correct it by changing the FOV distance... πŸ˜‰

        BTW - who would need a 3km x 3km box..?? πŸ˜• πŸ˜„

        Cheers

          This is a pretty well known issue. Its called clipping.

          If i remember correctly it usually occurs when you have a very large model, or your model is a long way form the origin. If you do a search for 'clipping' you should get a lot of info on it.

                Like I said... Fix it by adjusting the FOV setting... πŸ˜‰
