Hello cognoscenti,

Can anyone tell me what is going wrong with the "Hide" command, what I may not be doing right, to get an image like this?
It ran through the whole "hide" routine, and didn't hide things. (Red arrows added to the PNG file to point it out)
Curiously, all of those lines that should be hidden are now dashed lines, only where they are to be hidden. When I erase using a mask for dashed lines, the resulting perspective looks fine, ignoring the 3 pt convergence. Is this a 'settings' issue?

I understand the Crop issue, but the cropped version has the same problem.
Also, I set 'eye' and 'focal' Z both at 5.0, yet the image tilts back in 3 point perspective fashion. Is that normal?
