      This has happened more than once, I'm working away on a project, I haven't created any section planes at all in this model, then as I'm rotating the view I notice that part of the model is disappearing. There is something like an invisible section plane in a fixed location between me and the model. Nearly half the model is affected, parts of it disappear as the model rotates just as if it was a flat plane on an angle.
      I have toggled section planes and section cuts on and off to confirm that I haven't somehow created one without looking. Has anyone heard of this before, have I discovered a bug?

      The only way I can work around it is to move the model back away from the invisible plane. (A crossing selection picks up that nasty plane and takes it along. I need to click all the groups one by one in order to move everything and leave that thing behind.) Sheesh!

        This is the clipping plane problem.
        Search for Clipping to get some ideas on how to avoid it.
