Hi Friends!
Perhaps some of you have already encountered a similar problem.
When working with the HeightField Noise, strange artifacts appear in the viewport (see screenshots). These artifacts appear when you look at the plane (the surface of the earth) from the side, and in the top view they disappear. With what it can be connected? Software glitches? or an incorrect combination of viewport and node parameters?
Thanks in advance!

Can you post your HIP file? Everything looks fine on my Windows 10 system running H19.5.435.

Post your hardware and software versions.
Upgrade to the latest...?

Check your near/far clip planes in the display options.

I checked this tab, but honestly did not understand what these parameters mean. I tried to play with their values, but the picture did not change. Could you check attached screenshot.

I opened your file and the heightfield looks normal on my end. Your Intel graphics card doesn't meet the minimum system requirements, it may be related to that.

Thank you, Siavash! Now the reason is clear.

Hi g0rka, I have the same Mac system and graphics card, so I've been having visual issues as well. Just wondering, have you found a way to make this work?
