Rhino 7 Shaded View, Graphic Error(Surface being weirdly stretched)



Hello,

My rhino 7 is having a weird display issue. Even a simple box geometry in shaded view has graphic problem like attached images and also the texture mapping follows this crashed surface display which shows up like a stretched barcode. I’ve already tried reinstalling rhino7 and 8, but had the same issue. I’m assuming my laptop’s graphic card is the reason, but is there a way to fix this?

Can you run SystemInfo in Rhino and paste the results here? That can tell us a bit more about what your graphics system looks like.

If you temporarily disable Enscape and V-Ray and restart Rhino does the problem go away?

How can I disable Enscape and V-ray?

Go into Options>Plug-ins and find them in the list and clear the checkmarks in the Enabled column next to their names. Then close and re-open Rhino.

It still does.

When I made a new rhino file and make a box, sometimes it happens and sometimes it doesn’t. When it doesn’t happen, so I copy and pasted the weird box into that new file, the problem happens again.

So it’s only some objects causing the problem? Can you post a file with one of them here?

It shows up like this to me.

You are enormously far from the world origin:

One corner of the box:
Point in world coordinates = 84502932.000,2056507384.002,-135.000

Meshing and shading artifacts will happen at this distance.

If you move the box close to the world origin, the shading will look normal.
