Graphics problem when using section view

Anonymous — Wed, 10 May 2017 12:57:29 GMT

Hi all,

Issue when doing section views in the model. After I create the view I get the attached problem big gray box. it is not just the cross section of a plate because nothing is there in the normal model (see the last pic). I can move around the assembly and it doesn't go away. Now I have been able to get it to go away temporarily by changing the visual style but usual comes back after a few minutes of moving around the model.

Hi.

Please tell us which version of Inventor do you use (service pack) and if it is posible attach your design to help you better.

While, you can check this :

- change the graphic mode to Compatibility and restart inventor.

Hi Paul,

This issue has been resolved as of 2017.4 Update. If you have access to subscription site, please download R4 Update and install it. The issue should go away.

Many thanks!

The issue reappeared in 2018 for me, but that being said, I've only had it occur once in the last 2 weeks.

Hi Andrew,

The issue should be 2017 specific. If you are seeing it on 2018, something is not working right. Please let me know if you have repeatable steps in 2018. We need to take a look at the behavior.

Many thanks!
