Hi. I am doing a large scene (far from the origin). How can I fix the viewport glitches? Is this because of being far from the centre of my scene, or is it about clipping properties from the viewport?
Thank you
Hi Bruno,
The floating point math gets wonky far from origin, best if you can move it closer to 0,0.
Please run SystemInfo in the Rhino command line and post the result. Thanks!
Is it possible to move the centre to the mesh instead of moving everything to the centre?
