Can't display whole model

Can't display whole model

Can't display whole model

(OP)
Hello, I have been working with NX/UG for a while and have noticed an issue displaying large models but can't seem to figure out what is going on. I'm currently working with a model that is 9 feet long and 6" in diameter. When I rotate the model into certain directions it gets cutoff as if there is a bounding box or something. If I zoom in on that area it still remains cutoff. Anyone seen this before or know how to resolve it?

Thanks
Scott

RE: Can't display whole model

Go to...

View -> Camera -> Edit...

...and near the bottom of the dialog, push the button titled 'Fit Planes to Extents' and then hit OK. Your display should now be OK.

Or click Fit command. It will also fix this display issue.
