BUG: Component Display Bug

Hi David,

I seem to be getting a display bug of Components in Lara Behmoaram's definition seen here on the Crv Components. I suspect it's to do with the large distance from canvas origin. approx. (1000,1500).

Grasshopper 0.8.0066

Rhino 5 64-bit (latest)

Windows Vista 64-bit

Yeah GDI goes hay-wire when drawing things far away from the origin. It's got nothing to do with OpenGL and it isn't really something I can fix without completely changing the way the Grasshopper canvas is drawn. It's a fundamental problem that may or may not one day be fixed. Luckily it manifests itself first with the fill gradients for component boxes which aren't particularly essential. When you get further away still it starts to affect more important things.

Thanks. At least it's not just me.

I'd never seen it before as you have to be a long way from home and us small islanders hate to travel :)

I used to live and work at the opposite ends of the Island and people found it hard to believe I could commute such large distances on a daily basis. A full 40 minute drive on open roads with no speed limit it was just unbearable.

I work from my living room, so my daily commute is about 10 seconds.

Unless I decide I need to think about something in which case I'm better off without a laptop at hand so in that case I find a nice cafe/bar in town to sit down with a sketch-pad.
