i have no problems with the 3d viewport but am unable to see some bezier 
patches in the other viewports, (its not because i have trouble seeing them -
the lines arent visible at all! + this bug was noticed by another person on 
rec.games.computer.quake.editing)

the best way to describe this is that i cant see any patch mesh that has no 
surface area facing the viewport.

for example if i create a brush and convert to curve>cylinder i cant see it 
from the xy/top view. if i were to use selection>rotate>rotateX on it i would 
then be able to see it in xy but wouldnt be able to see it in xz. 

another example: if i were to make a brush into a "simple patch mesh" i can see 
it in xy/top but not xz or yz. if i were to use selection>rotate>rotateX on it 
i would then be able to see it in xz but not yz or xy.

last example: if i were to make a brush and convert to curve>cone i can see it 
in all the viewports because there is surface area visible in all 3 views.


i used the clean option and created this console log from the default settings. 
it is from me starting radiant, drawing a brush, making it a cylinder, then 
closing radiant. my videocard is a 3Dlabs vx1 32MB agp model.
