Model to the left of origin disappears

Hello, 

 

I have encountered a problem i have not seen before. I have a custom made template, that I have used for several projects. 

Now all of a sudden if I place my model to the left of the origin it disappears in the 3D view but not in 2D plane.

 

If i then move my whole model to the right of the origin, then everything is visible in 3D. It's like the origin works as a cutting plane..

Any suggestions? See attached images!

 

Operating system used: Windows 11, 24H2

Hi, maybe you tape the 33D cut plane " short key and have a vertical cut plane set.

 

Go to the "View / Elements in 3D view / 3D cutting" to verify  if it is set on.

When 3D cutting is on, to delete a cut plane be sure they are displayed in "View / Elements in 3D view / 3D cutting Plane / Display Cutting Planes"

Try turning on all layers and see if there is an element with a strong Building Material Priority that is cutting your model.

 

You should add a Signature to your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your ArchiCAD version and operating system (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.

Thanks for your replies! The issue was that I had an invisible cutting plane through the origin and that was saved to my template file..
