I am facing issues related to the clipping drawings: for some clipping plane, the Background layers are slightly moved from the cut layers (Curve, Hatch, Solid).
I can’t figure out what triggers this issue as for some clipping planes/drawings it worked all fine.
…another exemple here from a plan view.
One thing I noticed is that the “shift” happens following X or Y axis (it is perfectly vertical here in plan) (on the section showed above, the shift is also perfectly to the right). By that I mean that it doesn’t follow a random direction.
I haven’t seen any reports of this behavior before. If you copy a few objects to a new file, can you than still reproduce the issue? If so, please attach a sample 3dm file that we can take a closer look at.
Alternatively, you could upload the 400mb file here → Rhino Accounts. Make sure to copy the link to this thread in the comments field if you use that option.
-wim
Put some objects from the model to a new file → no issue on couple Clipping Drawings
Added heavier pieces (like that mesh roof, which consists of a group of 1300 mesh boxes + 2000 curves) → issue came back when I updated the CD
Try working the otherway around on my main file :
Removed the roof group from the Clipping Planes forming the failed CD > still issues
Removed some curved terrain surfaces from the CP forming the failed CD > the CD was finally right again
Is it possible that the issue is “performance” related ? It seems that the CD fails only when cutting a lot of / complex pieces. I don’t seem to have issues when cutting simpler/polygonal objects.
Here is an extract where you still see the failed CD.
I wanted to jump in and say I’m seeing the same behavior in a particularly dense model.
Romain - I did find a short term workaround which is: instead of using the update clipping planes command if you just move your section plane in your viewport it seems to update the content without the ‘shifting’.
Wim - if it’s helpful I can provide my model as well.
bump - same issue happening to me on v8.6.24086.11001
This occurred seemingly at random after running UpdateClippingDrawings - previously this drawing had updated with no issues. I can recreate it but its frustrating to have to reapply detail-specific print settings on multiple layouts.
