What causes BoardOutline/Cutouts to not show in the 3D canvas?

Not finding help on diagnosing this on CDNS website or just what it is expecting.  Just me?   B-)

    The 3D canvas needs a lot of work within Allegro, sorry. Just my opinion. I mess with it occasionally, but not often. There is a 'proper way' to do the cutouts, but haven't played with it enough to figure it out completely. The board outline should always come up though, unless maybe it's not contiguous (a complete outline, end to end). If you run into fixes let us all know. Thanks.
