Layout Thumbnails blank and won't print or save to pdf

Hi All. Im using an updated Rhino6 for Mac. I have several layouts created, however some of the thumbnails are blank and will not print or save to pdf. This doesn’t happen on all of them and it happens to different layouts at different times. I can share a screen that shows the layout is visible in the viewport but not in the thumbnail. This doesn’t happen in the Rhino7WIP but it crashes after a few commands and is impossible to work with at the moment. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi - can you please run the Rhino SystemInfo command and copy-paste the result here?
Also, please post a 3dm file that shows that behavior.
Finally, when the Rhino 7 WIP crashes, are you sending in crash reports?

Thanks Wim. Below is a reduced file but the problem still shows up. I will send crash reports in a few minutes for 7 WIP. Appreciate the help.Layout problem.3dm (19.0 MB)

If it would be helpful I could speak directly to McNeel tech regarding crashing issues with Rhino 7 WIP? I sent in reports today but they were happening too frequently to continue.

If the layout viewport is set to Shaded (instead of Rendered), then I am able to save the layouts to PDF.

I have seen this when the Layout itself is no set to Wireframe.
It’s not supposed to be possible (there’s no U/I to do it), but it happens infrequently.

In one of the problem layouts, without a Detail active, type:
SetDisplayMode
Make sure it is in Wireframe.
I suspect yours are not.

Any luck?
