Guidelines and nodes don't appear in 3D

Paulinne

Hi! I have a problem with my model - when I select an element in 3D it's guidelines and nodes don't appear if its the whole model. If I isolate only the element, everything is fine. Any clue what would cause that. It worked perfectly until today. I put some screenshots for clarity.

I do not know the reason, but has anything been modelled very far from the Project Origin?

Or is the model itself far from the Project Origin?

 

Have you tried re-starting your PC?

That is a strange anomaly.   Be sure to post what caused this when you figure it out.  

 

Thanks.

No, this is the original model, this is why I was surprised. When I show a small marked area from the model everything is fine.

And this happens to other computers too.

Some details of which version of AC and revision number might help together with your OS.

 

Has anyone possibly changed any of these settings in the Work Environment?

Apple iMac Intel i9 / macOS Sonoma / AC27UKI (most recent builds.. if they work)

This is AC 21.0.0.3005, on Windows 10. And no, the settings are as shown.

There has been 6 updates to version 21.

The newest is build 8002.

You should probably try installing that.

I have again inspected if something was modelled very far from the project origin, somehow my railings were moved on a very different level and I found and deleted them. That worked and now everything is fine. Thank a lot again.
