Hello, I'm working on a thermal bridge according to Passive House standards: where an exterior wall meets the slab.

The isotherm lines appear as expected:

but the Heat map has discontinuities and is missing in some places:

Yes, Therm has finished calculations and returned my normal cursor.  Any explanation would be greatly appreciated.  Anyone else discover something similar?  It just looks unprofessional in a report or on a webpage.

Here's my 'Preferences' settings:
Preferences_Simulation.PNGPreferences_Snap-Settings.PNGPreferences_Updates.PNGPreferences_Drawing-Options.PNGPreferences_File-Options.PNGPreferences_Preferences.PNG

Display Options.  At 1 pixel, it would cycle and cycle and never finish.

And finally, my Therm file:

Many thanks,

My advice would be to set the zoom level to exactly how you want it, then go into the display options dialog and set the color infrared to 1 pixel resolution.  Be patient and let the graphic load fully.  Any time you move your view or zoom it will trigger a regeneration of the infrared display.
