Perhaps the problem is already there (not related to the feature that I develop) or the project that I have. I haven't checked further. See: https://imgur.com/a/cisqkiX

Right, that is independent from what Ismail has been working on. Those
"cut" circles are a texture on the terrain. Because the project extent
is very small, the circles are not fully drawn.

Generally when using 3D renderers it is useful to set null 2D renderer
to such layers to avoid the confusion of having a single feature
rendered twice... And also it is useful to also have some background
map so in the 3D scene it is clear where the scene starts and where it
ends :-)
