Feature request: I am working on a very large model with probably over a hundred layers, many of which are nested. In order to effectively work on the model, partly due to size of file and partly in order to see the elements that are being worked on, I regularly have to turn off numerous layers wh…

[image] Helvetosaur: Well, the GT650M I think has 1Gb of video RAM, and that needs to power a retina display (Macbooks have always been underpowered graphically). If you have a scene that “weighs” half a gig, I suspect the graphics card is just not up to the task. I do have a 27" external mo…

having now deleted a number of complex elements from the scene to make it more manageable it appears that the layer state manager has screwed up my file. I now cannot get one of the viewports to update with changes in layer visibility. I have tried deleting the saved layer states but that hasn’t hel…

could be as simple as a damaged Viewport. You can replace all the viewports with the 4View command, or you can “close” the viewport (in the viewport menu) to get rid of it, then run the NewViewport command to make a new one. Using Viewport properties, set the projection and name, then drag it into…

[image] robinp: I wish I could upload screen shots and / or the model! You can just drag and drop files into your message. Or use the upload button on top.

As robinp stated in an earlier post, it’s a confidentiality issue, not a discourse knowledge issue.

I originally posted this in rhino for Windows because of its feature request nature. I’ve changed it now to rhino for Mac because it seems the issue has been mostly implemented but has some bugs. @John_Brock is there a way to close a viewport on the Mac? Is it possible to reset to default 4 viewpor…

No, not on the Mac. You will need to start a new file (new viewports) and import the file giving you problems, leaving the potentially damaged viewports behind…

Hi, I’m experiencing same issue as robinp. Changing layers configuration via Layer State Manager is behaving wrongly. Take a look at the screen shot attached. As you can see, ortogonal viewport are showing layer state 2D design 01, but perspective viewport shows layer state 3D design 01 though I ca…

Nobody else suffering this problem? It is really a serious bug, it corrupted my file…

it’s a pretty serious bug but the fix I found was suggested I think by @John_Brock which is to create a new file and import the old into it. Then stay well clear of saved layer states until the bug is fixed!

I have had serious problems with LayerStateManager, see this thread. I am staying away from using it now.
