You can see it's kind of going off the edges in all directions. Now if we zoom out, it actually goes farther than it looks. So the full size of the viewport is way out here, and we're really only interested in the portion in the middle that looks at the building geometry and at the building site. So what can we do about that? Well, let's double click inside the viewport and that will activate the viewport. And now you can see that you're actually able to select the model geometry. So you could work on the model as normal here. And the viewport is just grayed out in the background for reference. So what we're going to do now is turn on the cropping behavior…
