System Information
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.19044-SP0 64 Bits
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.5.0 NVIDIA 516.94

Blender Version
Broken: version: 3.3.1, branch: master, commit date: 2022-10-04 18:35, hash: b292cfe5a9
Checked in Blender version 3.4.0 Apha, commit date: 2022-10-08 02:26 - same issue

Short description of error
For orthographic Camera without any shifts - Line art modifier (for a Collection) showing lines for objects behind other objects - which otherwise should not be visible. And some lines are not visible which should be.
Happens with contours option in the Line Art modifier. Slight rotation on z axis solves the issue.

Noticed issue with some specific frames on my complete blend file.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Open attached blend file and go to front orthographic view.

Also happens on older versions, so not a recent regression.

From the description it doesn't seem to be the old inverted-z bug since a rotation could solve the issue, Must be something I have failed to take care of since the beginning. Let me check.

The only thing I can see is the object being too small. The current problem with stuff being too small is that chaining has a certain "simplification threshold" that turned out to be in absolute size only in ortho camera (thus perspective camera isn't affected). This means if the object is too small those "lines that are supposedly hidden" are connected to the visible ones as "simplification". I tuned the internal threshold manually to be able to get a correct result but looks like This method doesn't work very well in this geometry size either.

I'll think of a way to best handle this kind of situation. For now if you scale the scene up to like a regular cube's size, it should work just fine.

After some more tests: Apparently the armature scale is too small, simply applying the scale also does the trick

@ChengduLittleA So you would consider this a known limitation?
