The following blocks do not render from more than ~20 away:
Beds
Bars
Fences
Rails
Doors
Trapdoors
And possibly others
My guess is that all nonfull blocks have this problem.
The distance is not affected by render distance setting.

i no whats wrong your minecraft is afting funny it happen to me you have to reinstall minecraft if that doesnt work i think that your minecraft is broken
Does this issue still affect the current version of Minecraft PE? If so, please update the "Affected Version/s" option to reflect this.
Also, does your render distance change the distance at which transparent blocks are shown?
I do not think anybody has seen this.
