View distance

Support Basics & Interface

Hello, how can I maximize the view distance in the 3D Viewport? I have imported some .obj scenes that are extremely large to manipulate. Any ideas?

Press N for the properties panel. Increase the View Clip End value. If you want to render you’ll also have to change the clip values for the camera in its properties window
Ideally scale down your objects if they are very big as very large or very small clip values can cause viewport rendering errors

Thanks for the help, this solved my problem.

I used this value 100000000.0 and things got better. :slight_smile:

You could always scale the objects by .000000001 or whatever to bring them down to a good manageable size.

Good point, eventually this is better to manipulate the objects and then bring them back to their original size.
