Photoshop CC Ground Plane grid spacing/density settings?

I was working with some extruded text (just learning 3D aspects of PS) and it appeared that my ground plane disappeared. So while I can see the extruded text and manipulate it and the camera as expected (normally) the ground plane appears to not be there.  However upon closer inspection it looks as though the density of the ground plane grid spacing increased significantly (or perhaps got very small?). In the secondary view window while viewing the TOP view, the underlying grid shows, but is very dense, that is it's very closely spaced. It kind of looks like tweed.
I was thinking that I somehow unwittingly screwed up some setting in the document so I created a new document from scratch. I then created a sphere mesh from preset and the grid spacing didn't change from the previous document. It behaves as described above.
Any ideas/suggestions?
Thanks

Chris,
Thanks for the response... I have a GeForce GTX580 card (Win 7 on an Alienware Aurora with 24GB RAM). The thing is, it was working fine at some point... just haven't used 3D in PS CC in  a while so I'm not sure which update may have caused an issue. All other 3D features work fine so I can't imagine why displaying the ground plane would be that taxing on my system so as to be faint/nearly invisible. Not the biggest issue in the world but I kind of got used to seeing it and it's throwing me off a bit

  • 3D ground plane grid not visible in CC 2014.0.0

    Hi,
    i am a Creative Cloud member and since the 2014.0.0 CC version, i am not able to show anymore the 3D ground plane grid.
    I use a MacBook Pro Retina (Half 2012), with a NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M (1024 Mo) and OS X 10.9.4.
    Regards.

    I have the same question. Adobe is really dropping the ball on this one. I've seen this question asked in multiple places with no response and no answer.

  • How to show ground plane grid in 3D (CS5)

    I am trying to show the plane as you can see in this image I found online.
    My screen does not show this. I have selected View>Show>3D Ground Plane but that does not work.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    You have to have one of the 3D tools selected for the grid to display. Try pressing 'K' or 'N'. If that doesn't turn it on, then go to View> Extras and click it to give it a check mark (or toggle Hide/Show with Ctrl/Cmd+H).

  • How do I remove the ground plane shadow in Photoshop CC 2014 when working with 3D?

    Is it possible? I still want to maintain the shadow on the 3D object itself but I don't want the 3D object to cast a shadow on the ground plane. How can this be achieved?

    In your 3D panel, click on the Environment.
    Now look in your Properties panel.  There are Ground Plane settings there, including an Opacity control.  Set that to 0% and you should be good to go.

  • Planning grid and Windows Vista

    I am currently working with the ISH Med planning grid on the network of a client.
    The client is working with Windows XP and on there the planning grid works OK.
    However, I work on a computer with Windows Vista on their network. I am not able to install te planning grid on my laptop.
    Does anyone know how to solve this problem, without changing any settings settings that might influence the network of my client?
    Thank you in advance

    hi elvier,
    I didn't answer this posting earlier because it is so unspecific. now that it is brought to my attention again, here a short note:
    Testing the planning grid under vista as well as other customers experiences don't show any problems using the planning grid on vista.
    You just have to follow general SAP guidelines (notes) as well as have access rights to your system under control according to vista standards and everything is supposed to work fine.
    In case it doesn't, describe ypour problem in more detail and/or open a customer message as proposed by claudius.
    regards,
    anton

  • Separate ground plane reflections in 3d

    is there any way to turn off the ground plane reflection for any one object in a 3d scene? i'm trying to create a mock-up of a bottle where the bottle is semi-transparent (clear plastic) but the label is opaque. i've done this by creating two bottle object, the idea being to leave one bottle (the semi-tansparent one) blank and put the label on the other one's extrusion. it's working out ok, except the semi-transparent bottle is screwing up the reflection so i'd like to turn that reflection off if possible. any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

  • Ground Plane NOT Available

    Okay. So I have built a 3D text object in PS CS5. I've pretty much got it where I want it and it seems to be snapping to the "ground". The only issue is that I cannot view the ground plane because my button is greyed out.
    Now, before I go too much further, I will explain what I have:
    Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit
    Core i7 920
    12GB RAM (EVo GeiL)
    ATi Radeon 4850 Dual DVi
    OpenGL is running and selected in Performance
    RAM is set to almost 8GB in Performance settings
    Now, from what I read, this was initially an issue with OpenGL not either running or being the wrong version. That's not the case here. I have looked for the answer but have still found nothing that will assist in the cloud. So I am hoping someone here knows how I can get the Ground Plane to show up, or at least have the button un-greyed.
    Thanks for your help.

    Actually, I never noticed that. But it's not the one I am looking for, since it's not drawing shadows on the plane.
    Here is where I am talking about, in the 3D window:
    Perhaps I am missing something else, since you were able to show me that which I never saw before. Thank you.

  • How can I set a graph's minor grid spacing to look like a Hypertrend Graph?

    I can set the major grid spacing by specifying an array of axis markers, but there does not seem to be a way to set the minor grid spacing.  I would like to emulate the clean look of the Hypertrend Graphs which set the minor grid spacing to be 1/2 of the major grid.  You can use the graph axis range minor increment property but it will not let you set it less than 5 divisions per major grid.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi sachsm,
    Is it a Waveform Graph or a XY Graph that you are working with? What are the specific values that you are trying to set for the major and minor grid divisions? I believe you should be able to set this up by inputting values for the X Scale Minor Increment and X Scale Increment properties. (Make sure to set the major increment before the minor increment) Attached is a screenshot showing the setup for a major increment of 10 and a minor increment of 5. Does this approach seem to work with your application?

  • Grid spacing in SSRS 2008?

    I installed SSRS 2008 BIDS on my pc the other day. As I've been getting acquainted with SSRS 2008, I've come to discover that I can find how to modify or display grid spacing. SSRS 2005 has grid spacing properties as part of report properties, but I don't see it in SSRS 2008.  Does grid spacing exist in SSRS 2008, and can the grid spacing be displayed?
    Thanks,
    Pete

    Very bad idea to remove this feature! I am training developers today on SSRS and these are seasoned CR developers; this is one of the very first things they asked about as well as snap-to. Not a good idea, especially if you are trying to sway folks to
    use SSRS.

  • Reduce grid spacing between icons in Finder even further

    Hi,
    Is there a way to reduce the grid spacing of icons in the Finder even further than what the cmd-I window allows? It still seems a lot of wasted space, I'd say, and I think some of my folders would look cooler if I could squeeze the icons closer together...
    Thanks in advance,
    Traversario

    OK, it seems this isn't a simple matter. I'm just wondering if anybody has positive information that reducing the grid spacing further than what the ⌘I window allows is NOT possible?
