Hi Robert :

  Actually , I wasn't very clear on what I was asking . I
mean , in terms of size , how 'big' is your viewport window...
1 meter across ... 10 meters across ... 100 meters across ?

  Mine is 1 Meter across (aprox.) and this is very comfortable
to work with and is what I get when I hit the "Reset to Native
State" button on the RS View Port Control Window .
http://www.studiodynamics.net/saved/native_view.jpg

   The rectangle in that scene is .5 X .5 meters , and this is
the 'scale' that I work with , that is , the Native State size .

  Not sure if this Native State is user configurable or not , but
I use this and I like it . If I size up so that the Viewport is
15 X 15 meters in size , I get a lot of clipping issues that re-
quire me to drag and drop the scene root into viewport window to
correct it .

   I get a nice perspective view , and can switch to parallel mode
for modeling with very little difference in appearance . So that's
what I'm basically asking , and it looks like you are probably us-
ing that same working method too .

   How about others that are working with much larger scene sizes?
Can you switch back and forth between parellel and perspective mode
easily , without clipping plane issues etc ?

Thanks in advance .
