I have a handful of display modes that have stopped working - example being one I made based off of monochrome, which now just displays like wireframe or shaded but with no 3D geometry.
This happens and then the display mode just becomes useless - loses its settings and won’t work unless I reimport it or make it from scratch. Happened with a few I downloaded from the forums too. Is there a fix for this? Pretty annoying to deal with again and again
Another example using technical ultra from this thread: Share your custom viewport modes here - #116 by Rhino_Bulgaria
Goes to wireframe while retaining the custom background. I’ve experienced this where the mesh can’t be calculated but no such issue is shown on the command line
Basically all styles based on monochrome or technical. Maybe there’s others being affected too but these are the ones I’ve noticed and had repeated issue with

that’s really odd. I can confirm that the settings look like they are made from wireframe, but looking at the ini they are certainly not.
Do you have any ideas when/how this happens?
Do they get busted during modeling? After restarting Rhino? With certain actions?
Do they get busted all at the same time btw?
This has happened twice now - where they get wiped after I fix them
It never happens mid session - I’ll be using it, close out, then maybe next day I open the file and switch to a display mode to export some images and they look like the wireframe. So after restarting Rhino
I’m almost certain that yes they get busted at the same time, hard to say because first time I noticed it on one and then the others later on. This second time I noticed them all in the same session - but no saying if it happened all at once because a few of them I hadn’t used for a while since reimporting them after the last time they broke down
I feel like both times it happened while working in a large (over 100mb) file with a ton of geometry in it - not the same files each time though - a working file for testing out some massings and unit types, so when I go to switch and it’s in wireframe I assume it’s because it failed to generate the render mesh and not an issue with the display mode, and then I realize after switching to a different one or isolating and trying again that it’s an issue with the display mode.
Hi Gijs, just wondering if there’s any update on what might be causing this? I’ve lost a few more (or maybe just noticed losing them). Would appreciate any insight you or anyone else on the team might have into this.
