Fixture display in 3D

[marty]

I often find that when I call up a cross section/ elevation that 3D objects do not display correctly. If I select the object then deselect it comes right. Likewise if I send the view to layout the objects appear correctly. It is not a major issue but when with a client and a view is called up it is embarrassing to have say - oh just a moment I will fix that!

Does anyone else have the problem and is there a fix?

Attached is example of a pedastal basin - the incorrect image is quite amusing though!

A common occurance is when I use vertical cylinder geometric shapes as post foundations on steep sites - they often display as a single vertical line - one click and they look correct but for a moment you think - where the **** have they gone???

I find that it happens with objects that are detailed or have a lot of faces. It usually works to just update or refresh the screen (hit F5) while in elevation and before sending it to layout.
