VA3 - Guides are visible on Plan view, even when shouldn't

[fsalla (Francesc Salla)]

Hi @Toni_Osterlund ,

@Toni_Osterlund

Even when layer is hidden, in active or through worksession, Guides are visible in the Plan view.

Yes, this is a bug. We will fix is as soon as possible.

@Toni_Osterlund

the Plan views do not seem to respect the Levels. The geometry is sectioned, but all the Plan Views are shown.

Try to check the “clippable” status of plan views, so they are clipped when hidding levels.

You can also play with the “View Depth” property to control the levels that are displayed in the plan view:

@Toni_Osterlund

1. The Plan generation is wrong, as seen in this screencap. The 4K-floor Plan view does not match the model. Models are through Worksession.

Can you share the file of this case?

Since version 3.7.1, VisualARQ doesn’t show plan views in other plan views (which generated a loop that led to crashes sometimes)

@Toni_Osterlund

When Plan view Auto Update is off, the plan should NOT update when moving it, or when updating the Style.

I agree. This change is already in our list of pending issues.

@Toni_Osterlund

If I have multiple Plan views on file (2+) and decide to update the style (or move the views), this causes the instant and simultaneous update of all Plan views. This update results in the crash of Rhino. It does not help, if the Plan view objects are hidden.

if you edit a plan view style, all plan views will update to the style changes, and will also update the geometry displayed in them. This is an expected behavior. But the crash should not happen. We fixed a related issue recently in the 3.7.1. Please try it with the last public update (Update - VisualARQ) or with the 3.8 RC3: VisualARQ 3 - Version 3.8 RC3 released

@Toni_Osterlund

When placed on top of each other, the higher (+Z) Plan view results are projected onto the lower Plan view results

I think this has been fixed in VisualARQ 3.8 because I can’t reproduce it. This is what I get when I update the plan views of your file: (all plan views have the View depth set to “unlimited”)
