Displayed Circles in 2014 and 2013
-
Still on my adventure in installing 2014.
I was trying to get the same styles in both versions when I noticed this anomaly.
Attached are four images. There are two image in 2013 and two in 2014. The two images are a close-up of the top of a circle and overall of the same circle.
Notice, that in 2014 there seems to be an out of plane segments at the top. This also appears at the bottom of the circle also. These segments change are you obit and the circle is capable of having a face, so this is a display problem
In 2013, the circle is shown as in the same plane.
Just to let someone know about the display problem.

i can't duplicate that but it appears the bottom images have a different AA setting applied compared to the top two.. maybe that's something to do with it?

Could you post the SKP file?

this was set at 4 for v2013, but reverted to 0 for v2014...
to test
check_AA = Test.get_AA_methodto change
full_AA = Test.set_AA_method(4)to revert
revert_AA = Test.set_AA_method(0)A number of people had real 'slow downs' at the higher settings

Both version of Sketchup, 2014 and 2013.
Thanks for your reply.

It does indeed seem to be an AA related issue. I saw it with your file on my Mac. If you change AA to 4 using Driven's snippet, the problem goes away.
A question for you about your circles. Is it common for you to draw circles off axis?
-
@Ken, I see it on my mac, and can make more with the same error with your v2014 skp, but not in a new drawing?

even, weirder... if I copy/paste'in'place your odd geometry to a new drawing, it's fine in the new...

Ok, it appears to be 'Style' related, it goes away with a plain default style
-
Ah ha! One of the Sketchy line styles being used in the 2014 file whereas it's not in the 2013 file. Ken, you should try it with the same style in both versions. Make your test valid.

File size of 1.11mb for one 24 sided circle???

April Fool.
No, I had started some modeling using PNG images. I always put the images on a layer so I can turn the images off and on. I was starting to model when I noticed the problem. So I erased everything, trying to find out what the problem was. So when I sent the files the images layers where turned off.
Nothing get by. Thanks for you reply.

Well, darn I downloaded the file to see what images I had left in the model. There were no images. So I don't know what the problem is with the file size. Does seem a tad bit large.

It's in the materials, you haven't purged them.

Thanks, checked my template, somehow it was loaded up. Now I should start with a smaller file size.
Again thanks.
