Hi all,

For some reason for one of my project I am encountering some weird problem when trying to set the film size manually on screen.

As shown in Pic 1, my cursor turns to an invalid symbol when I try to set the filmback in the perspective view. Also sometimes the heads up camera display shows a red rectangle around it too.

While it seems fine in other orthogonal views, eg. Top view in Pic 2

Thanks and best regards,
Gothra

I see this sometimes here too. It should always show a crosshairs cursor, but sometimes it doesn't - I don't think there's much I can do about that, so just ignore it - even if the cursor is sometimes wrong, you should still be able to draw the rectangle.

Also sometimes the heads up camera display shows a red rectangle around it too.

Yes, this means that the film size you have chosen does not fit completely inside of the Rhino viewport.

Cheers,

Ar okay~
Thanks.

on my machine, the cursor is almost always as in pic 1 ... but it works anyway.
