Why when selecting edges for planar fill are they MASSIVE yellow

Rhino Rhino for Windows

Hi,
V8
I select the edge of a solid I have trimmed the end off, to use planarFill commans and as I do so get MASSIVE yellow lines denying vision of item.

V8 what is going on, why this as default ?
V5 would be thin yellow.

I am trying to use V8 for the first time on an against the clock job and its one thing after another with it !

What else is there that needs changing to get normality restored ?

Cheers

Steve

Steve,

Was your first image in Shaded mode? - it looks like it might be Ghosted. If so, can you upload an image of the Surfaces page under Ghosted?

any of these set to something really big?

you could try a reset and return to factory defaults, but you’d lose any custom bits and have to remake or back them up before doing so-

Hi,

Rhino8 is as it came straight out of the box.
I havent altered any settings.
Gradually tweaking it this last week or two to get it displaying as V5,.
By that I mean the background colours, grid colours etc.
Not been anywhere near the settings you show.
Yet to even duve into making it show dimensions as per V5.
V5 being 1:10 scale and Rhino8 1:1 scale…nightmare to come.
Wouldnt want to undo what I have done and lose what time I have spent, but trust me havent been anywhere near such.

Steve,

  1. Could you upload your model file?
  2. Did you create it from scratch in R8?
  3. If you create a new model in R8 with just a simple cube and delete one face, do the naked edges show the same fat lines if you select for PlanarSrf?
  4. Could you run the Systeminfo command and paste the outcome here?

Regards
Jeremy

I’d try running the reset command and revert to factory defaults.

any better? (you’ll have to redo your custom bits, but something is screwy, and we need to get back to stable ground)
