hello Rhino team! I have had issues with control point visibility for some time now on rhino8; this applies to curves surfaces and solids.
I created a new blank file and copied geometry in and it seemed to work fine for a while. but its gone again.
all my visibility settings are default. is this a known bug?
@aditya.d.bhatt pls run _SystemInfo in Rhino and post back the results, as this could be a driver issue. Also a screenshot of what you are seeing and a model that shows the behavior can help troubleshoot.

thanks Gijs, I was unable to screenshot a hovering preselection where momentarily the points were visble. but the file is attached. I exported some geometry to a new file and the points seem visible just fine!
whats really interesting is that when i deleted some of the blocks the points appeared, and as soon as i pasted them back they disappeared.
As far as I can see this is caused by active clipping planes. But there are so many and also on hidden layers and hidden that this is hard to debug.
thanks! i disabled all the clipping planes and it seems to be working. i got a bit carried away with the selective clipping features of V8. i will try sequentially deleting a few and seeing what the threshold is.
