Scogginator Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Has anyone had their elevations become corrupted lately? The only fix for me is to open up the elevation and send to layout on some junk page I'm not going to print. This restores the elevation on the elevations page I intend to print. I'm an advanced user and have tried all the visual styles, plot lines, etc.. I feel like this is a hardware issue, driver issue, or software bug.

I have tried 'refresh display' and 'rebuild 3D' with no results. This evening, I'm replying to a helpdesk ticket where Chief asked for some hardware setting specifics. I'll keep this post updated as to what they suggest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgardner Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Have you tried plot lines with color fill if you want color instead of live views? Lot less taxing on your GPU which would be my guess looking at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at his machine specs, that machine should fly thru CA. That AMD 6900 XT video card is AMD's current flagship model and ranks 3rd behind a RTX 3090 in one website I looked at. Pretty impressive and about 2/3 the cost of a 3090. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scogginator Posted February 10, 2021 Author Share Posted February 10, 2021 Not to brag, but yeah, I used all of AMDs flagship stuff in this build. Put it all in a pelican case and them about 90% done with it. I still have cooling and some plexiglass to add but nothing is running too hot as long as I keep it open for now. I'm able to do fast render passes while playing in VR without any significant quality loss. This was just all a sudden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was not well written by me. We had a major power outage today so that was on my phone. What I meant was I would guess it has something to do with the driver on the GPU causing the issue.

Very possible. That's a new card and drivers could be problematic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scogginator Posted February 10, 2021 Author Share Posted February 10, 2021 You bring up a good point about the drivers. Historically, the AMD drivers have been hit or miss. Chief helpdesk wants me to check OpenGL setting and stuff when I get home this evening. I'll keep everyone posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Are you sure they print "corrupted"? I've seen elevation and section glitches before but when I made the PDF it didn't translate to that document so I didn't really care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dermot Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 My best guess is that it is a video card or video card driver issue. If you want to double check this, you could post your plan to see if others have the same problem.
