only part of 3D map shown in layout editor

[stragu]

What is the bug or the crash?

Sometimes, when creating or editing a 3D map element and copying the scene settings from a 3D view, I get only half of the view rendered in the layout editor:

I'm not sure how to share a detailed log as the instructions on the website haven't worked for me (I keep getting "no stack" when using gdb, even with ulimit -c unlimited).

Steps to reproduce the issue

The issue is quite inconsistent, I can't find a precise series of steps to reproduce it. But what I usually do is:

1. Create a 3D map view
2. Change the view settings to use a DEM, increase the vertical scale, resolution and skirt height
3. Got to Layout Manager and open a layout
4. Insert a 3D map element and copy the scene settings from the view

@stragu this happens only for a specific project and data or regardless?

Hi @gioman

I was able to reproduce with another smaller project, with a different data source.

I repeatedly click on "copy settings from a 3D view..." and sometimes, some tiles don't load, sometimes it even crashes. Not sure if it all relates to the same issue.

With the same settings, another part fails to load:

Here is the project: DATA_3782279.zip

@stragu I was not able to replicate on Win10 and Ubuntu 20.04.

I was still able to reproduce with the recently released 3.16.15:

I had to click several times on "Copy scene settings from a 3D View...." to make it happen.

It also sometimes crashes after copying the scene settings repeatedly.

I can still reproduce with 3.16.16: when repeatedly using "Copy scene settings from a 3D View....", tiles sometimes fail to render.

However, moving the object on the layout will render the tile. I feel like the situation might have improved, in that:

• It is not a section of the object that fails rendering, but only some tiles
• Moving the object or copying the scene again seems to solve it
• I haven't been able to crash QGIS again
