Hi,

As per the attached video, I’m getting this weird glitching effect on my model with these cylinders (base of a wind turbine). The glitching appears to only start once the model is at X height. I’ve tried scaling it down and the glitching disappears. I need to keep them at the correct height though as I’m comparing sizes with equipment that will be used alongside them.

The error also only seems to appear on my windows laptop. I’ve tried on the iPad and it’s not happening. I haven’t tried on a mac.

Thanks

I reported a similar instance [here](https://discourse.shapr3d.com/t/rendering-bug/30471).

I had a similar issue. I realised that I duplicated the shape on top of the other. That created the graphics smudges.

That was my fault in the end.

I did check that mate as also seen the issues with overlapping faces. That’s why I created a second one to ensure there was no problems with the object.
