Viewport reference system grid outside the viewport

Mohamed.E.Salem — Sun, 19 Sep 2021 19:04:37 GMT

Hi all,

I faced a problem while using the reference system to show the grid on the viewport. The problem is that the grid lines go outside the viewport as shown below using civil 2022. I tried to repeat the process with different files using civil 3d 2019, I got the same result. Can anyone help me solve this issue?

Hi Mohamed,
Never seen that before. Can you post your drawing?

If, from Paperspace, you type REGENALL. Do the extended lines go away? No? Turn off Hardware Acceleration.

The file contains sensitive data that I have no permission to share it. Additionally, REGENALL has no effect, and the turn off Hardware Acceleration is not active as shown below

Hi @Mohamed.E.Salem

Try setting the viewport type to Undefined from the AutoCAD properties palette

also the viewport object should be a rectangular viewport (not a viewport created from a Polyline)
