Hi, I did a revolve with a U shape. The result I get is not very pretty. The round of the U shows like multiple small straight segment.


is there a way to change the resolution to look like a smooth round.


I tried the render function, it doesn't change anything.


I have a picture to show you but don't know how to insert here
 
I wouldnt think the shade tab is going to make much diff, but go into your display settings and set the shade tab from 3 to 10. It will effect performance slightly on huge assy`s tho.


Could be a graphics card issue ?


Cant remember what exactly it is right now, someone else can help me out here.... but there is a config setting which goes something like Smooth_edges_Yes .... summit like that!
 
From your top pull down menu, View, Display Settings, Model Display, Edge Line, Edge Quality, High or Very High. If you set it on Very High and have large assemblies it could slow down your response time.
