I’m seeing some weird behavior with the clipping plan in certain view modes if I use selection clipping.
Arctic mode:
Modes like pen/shaded look okay.
I tried it on a fresh file and it definitely still does it. It’s only happening in certain display modes (monochrome, arctic, rendered).
Issues encountered on my setup are usually indicative of issues other’s will encounter as well (I’ve been fairly lucky to be spared from the more rare and unusual bugs). At the moment, selection clipping isn’t really something I absolutely need, so posting this issue is more just an FYI more than anything else.
The setup in your image looks simple enough. Why not just post that 3dm??
I agree but the 3dm is so simple that it can be recreated in seconds. I’ve chased this for a while between updates and it’s persistent. Same goes with the file(s)/geometry. I’m also careful about posting bugs when my machine is ‘maxed out’ (lots more stuff goes wrong but it’s usually doing things I shouldn’t being doing or don’t need to do).
It might be better to wait and see if someone else has the same issue (90% sure someone will). As mentioned this isn’t critical (the printing issues were, it’s fixed, and prints look awesome now!!).

If you post a 3dm file, then we can look at it and see if we get different results than you. Even pictures with boxes are surprisingly hard to accurately duplicated. For example, we don’t know if these are extrusions or polysurfaces.

Fair enough!!
That may be so but sending the actual file you are testing with is far better if possible. There always the possibility - liklihood even - that some detail will be different when we try to reproduce.
Meantime, I think this may be the bug
