    • RE: Orbit cuts off part of design - help!

      Ok sorted out I think. I had the camera set to Parallel Projection, I think the default is Perspective.

      In perspective mode my FOV was like 150 degrees or so, which made it hard to use. I set this back to between 30 and 35, and the clipping has disappeared - nice one Gaieus.

      Thanks again,

    • RE: Orbit cuts off part of design - help!

      Hi all,

      Thanks for you helpful comments - zooming to extent does take it away for a while, but if I orbit a few times it is back.

      I feel like it started when I played with the camera position and perspective options. I feel that if I redrew the design it would be fine, but I would like to understand why it happened.

      Thanks,

      Chris.

    • Orbit cuts off part of design - help!

      Hi all,

      Sorry if this has been answered - I searched the forums with no luck.

      I am new to SketchUp - didn't get much sleep last night, what a cool tool. Busy planning some changes on my house with it.

      After doing SOMETHING - could be perspective or walkthrough - now I have the following issue:

      As I orbit around my design it is as if there is an invisible plane that "slices" through the house, exposing inner walls like a section.

      This is frustrating as I cannot see the whole design from all angles. I would like to remove it, but I cannot "see" anything there - no section line or anything. I tried restarting SketchUp with no luck.

      Can anybody tell me what I have done?

      Many thanks,

      Chris, PMB, South Africa
