Geometry disappears whilst rotating and bounding boxes are drawn using rotate command with the shaded view.
I’ve updated the graphics card, this behaviour does not happen when in rendered view, any ideas on how to stop this behaviour?
Hi @jaybee63
Two things: Does this happen even with simple scenes, eg. a couple of simple boxes or is it only with complicated scenes?
Also, run the SystemInfo command in Rhino and post the result here.
HTH, Jakob
Hi Jakob,
Yes, it happens with simple scenes, if I draw a sphere and have no other geometry I still get the bounding box when rotating in shaded view.
Here are the results from the systeminfo command

Hi @jaybee63
First thing to check is that you don’t have BBox display enabled in the settings for your shaded view (marked in blue on the screengrab). Other than that, you could try to update your graphics card driver, although it’s quite recent.
HTH, Jakob
I’d 2nd what Jakob said, and also add that you may try disabling these plugins as a test to see if it has any effect-

Do you have three monitors hooked up to your graphics card? Maybe it’s not keeping up.
@Helvetosaur , I think you are right, I just noticed that… running 3 monitors they are underpowered by a good chunk… rhino needs 4gb vram per monitor and they only have 5gb vram total.
They are 7gb short on vram for your set up.
fwiw, video cards on ebay are cheap right now… Grab your self a used nvidia rtx card with 12gb and you’d be pretty happy-
heres some to check out-
Hi Jakob.
Thank you for the suggestion.
I have checked and bounding box is turned off.
Yes I have 3 monitors, but only one is used for Rhino, one perhaps for grasshopper and the other just to view photos of the project I’m working on.
There is no problem with any of the other viewport settings including rendered
Hi John -
But, as a test, does it change anything when you disconnect the two others?
Also, have you tried to see if the Rhino 8 WIP behaves in the same way?

Hi Jakob, i had checked the bounding box tick box relative to the wrong view (not shaded), just double-checked and you were right and the problem is now solved. Thank you so much

Hi @jaybee63,
Glad you’re sorted. Please tick the Solution box on Jakob’s post so browsers see the issue is solved.
