Hi All, 

 

I am curious to know why are there two Origin Points showing in my model?

I think one of them is part of the editing plane.

You have set a User Origin. You can return it to the Project Origin by double-clicking the User Origin icon in the standard toolbar.

it might not be the reason, but i belive this is conencted to the fact that my 3d window flickers, as if the editing planes intersec at a weird angle

I don't think so.

As mentioned in earlier posts, one (the black one) is a custom user origin, and the other (the blue one) is the project origin.

When you reset the user origin to the project origin, you will just see one and it will be black.
