Can no longer select or properly seee model

jackanimated

This is in Orthographic view. In perspective it's totally invisable. I cannot select any parts.

I've tried unfreeze all.


Any thoughts?

See those yellow triangles on the right? Viewport Clipping is enabled.

This could also be caused by the scale of your object. Being way too small or way too big.

If you select the model and press Z, it usually resets the automatic viewport clipping.

Unfortunately I am already aware of all the things you mentioned. I turned on the viewport clipping sliders to see if that would make a difference.

I cannot change the scale because I cannot select it.

I'm aware of Z, but in this case it does nothing (because I cannot select the model).

Is it frozen?
Is it shown in the Select By Name dialog?

Just tried and I can now select it by clicking on it and it looks fine too.

Must have been a bug with the viewport in Max. I'll restart Max if it happens again.
