Clipping when zooming - Asticles - 03-22-2018

Hi all,

I've notice that there is some clipping when zooming in orthographic mode.
The advantage of working in orthogonal mode is to prevent perspective issues like this.

Can this be fixed?


Regards.

Maybe if the user could reduce the Near Clipping Plane value in the Camera Settings it would help. By now this value is limited to something >= 0.01 (the default value).

Have tried but nothing. This don't happens with latest mlab version.

Sorry, I was meant we may fix the code to allow users to set that value to something very tiny - less than 0.01.
Currently, changing that value is doing nothing. Only if you set a greater value, not a lower one. Smile

Ok.
Thanks

I've hit that wall myself, and my workaround is to duplicate the object, move it off aways & scale it quite larger to work on it - and when done, do a bounding box on the original, scale the giant to the box and move it into the box and delete the original. Works quite well, but is tedious.
