schrlmbr Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Trying to stop what I call "roof sheathing bleed-thru" when I use perspective full overview. Guessing there is a simple fix, don't know what it is. Suggestions? Chris Schreier Chief X7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidJPotter Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 There have been many past threads posted here about "Z Fighting", please do a "Search" for that term where this question has been answered well and thoroughly in the past, multiple times.

Solution Kbird1 Posted July 26, 2015 Solution Share Posted July 26, 2015 This issue is much more prevalent in X6/X7 , and there is a KB article that may help , try the suggestion under "To accommodate large Terrains" where you alter the clipping distance to 300" ....this has worked for me... http://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-00107/troubleshooting-why-materials-appear-to-flicker-when-a-camera-view-is-rotated.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paramount Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Actually, I found out last Friday there is a known issue with z-fighting CA developers are working on and will have a resolution soon. I had a 1st level tech verify all the known solutions did not work on mine. I get it on doors, soffits. The tech told me to keep working the fix will not effect my work. Try the known fixes if that does not work write a ticket let them know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kbird1 Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 with doors don't turn off interior casing , as it also effects the Frame for some reason , eg around garage doors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paramount Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 My doors are fine now that you pointed out my interior casing was off, thanks Mick. I still have it on my soffits. Interesting part is the tech said the "known" issues are with doors, not roofs and soffits. We'll see, I guess at the next update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidJPotter Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 A temporary solution for roofs at least is to set the sheathing to the same material as the roof surface. That action then eliminates the "Z" fighting for the roof, call it a work-round if you like, it does work. DJP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schrlmbr Posted July 27, 2015 Author Share Posted July 27, 2015 Many thanks. Both changing clipping distances and changing the sheathing to the same as the roofing worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
