Hi I’m getting this error:

_An error occured in the display pipeline @ 00:28:23(869ms)_  
_Message: Index was outside the bounds of the array._  
_Type: IndexOutOfRangeException_

Does anyone know how it can be resolved? The geometry is either not being processed correctly, and or it’s not displaying within Rhino. The numbers after the @ symbol update to the current time as I pan around.

I’ve create a complex array of shapes and points within breps. The file does a lot of “in brep” analysis and then performs calculations on the objects within the brep. I’m mostly using standard plugins and [Urbano](https://urbano.io/index.html#download). I also have a note out to the developer. I cannot post the original file due to NDA, but can answer follow-up questions.

encountered same error for a long time.  
i start to find this in the rhino command line, it keeps popping up

Type: DocumentCollectedException  
An error occurred in the display pipeline @ 17:38:11(158ms)  
Message: Could not find DimensionStyle with ID 3d5e702f-e400-4c5a-809c-01f0137664bd

Most of the cases are normal, but when I open certain gh file, rotate the rhino window, and enter and exit the cluster within gh, the command line will always show that the display pipeline fails.  
All conponent in this GH file are Rhino8’s own batteries.

Especially in shading mode, it is basically impossible to rotate or even crash. Wireframe mode is acceptable for speed.  
the following capture is the rhino command line.
