Hi,

Does anyone know what these purple rectangles are?  I'm not sure if I clicked something by mistake, or something.  I have all four views set to Wireframe.  I thought changing to shaded or another type of view might get rid of them, but no.  When I first load the scene these rectagles are not there, but as soon as I move or change anything, they show up and I can't get rid of them.  It's not happening in any other scenes I have saved. 

 I'm using Vue 9 Complete.

 Thanks for any info!

John

Can't tell from your screengrab (too compressed, can't read your object list in the world browser). Do you have a plane that has a procedural material in the scene?

Thanks for the reply!

 

Here's a larger object list.  It's all simple stuff, I think.  No terrains. I have two boolen cubes making an open box object, with an image for texture.  The other objects are just vobs.

Thanks

Could it be one of the "basic room" object? If it's a boolean, maybe the object you used to cut the other one is using this color (either as a procedural color, or an automatic color)?

I went through the objects.  As soon as I deleted the table, they went away.  I added the table back,  tried both an image and a procedural color on it, but the purble rectangle stay.  At least I know it's just the table object.  I guess I can deal with it for this sence. 

 

Thanks for your help Bruno!

Maybe it's an automatic color Vue gave it when you loaded it. You can check that in the Apect tab of the Object manager, under the material preview.

I think this is a parametric object! Some 3D applications use parametric objects (Spheres, lathe nurbs ect.) Vue can't read this objects, because they aren't made from polygons. Vue only loads this as a dummy (placeholder) object.The only solution is to bake the parametric objects in the 3D application to Polygons before import to Vue.
