I have created a custom view with the name “Shaded Texture no isocurve”.
Please see the settings in the attached image.
When I turn on shadows and I copy a block instance or I move a block instance with the alt key it breaks the viewport.
When I turn off shadows everything works as expected.
So here is a sample scene:
And this is what happens:

As far as drivers for GPUs are concerned, those are ancient. Please open the Notifications panel in Rhino and follow the links to a NVIDIA site where you can get the latest drivers for your GTX. We recommend using the Clean Install option when installing new drivers.

I have updated the drivers, the problem is still there.
If I explode the block it works, if I deactivate shadows it also works, but if I leave it as a block and turn on shadows and use command copy or alt+drag gismo it still breaks the viewport.
Hi,

You can have a look at this post.
Thank you for that information, I am glad they fixed it.
Shall I wait wait for the official release or is the release candidate stable in generall?
