[IDV #HJM-898946]: Can't view Full Disk satellite images in custom orthographic projection? (IDV 2.9)

Hi, Evan

Here are a few suggestions,

1. Reduce the memory allocated to the IDV.

2. Reduce the size of data you are trying to load.

3. Turn off fast rendering.

If these suggestions do not work, would it be possible to have more information 
about how you create the custom projection? Perhaps could send us the plug-in?

Many thanks,

-Julien
