If you check the scene in four views mode, you will be able to see the actual height position better. Sometimes perspective views can be misleading.

Are you using a 'realistic sky' for the background? Maybe your 'ground' setting in the properties panel is setting the ground above Z=0 so then your cup sitting on 0 is below the ground. Check your settings in the scene panel. If this is ok, how about posting the file here? Or some screenshots?

Hello, I was trying to make some screen shots today but now that I have reopened the file the problem seems to be gone, but it may have been that I was doing something silly before. Well anyway, I'm just trying a full render from another angle to be sure, but I think it is all okay. Love esther
