Annotation objects go missing in layout

VisualARQ
1

Hello everyone,

I’m experiencing an issue in the layout view in Rhino 8 with VisualARQ 3. Occasionally, certain lines, texts, or dimension labels disappear randomly and do not display correctly. However, when I print the layout, everything appears as expected.

Could this be a graphics issue in Rhino? Has anyone encountered a similar problem or found a solution?

I’ve attached an example image where the title block, dimension texts, and some other lines are missing.

Thank you in advance for any help!

Best regards,
Dolama

As a test, does the problem persist if you disable the third party plugins (In PluginManager, select “plugins that don’t ship with Rhino” , uncheck the plugins and restart Rhino)

If possible, send the file (either by pm or here)
