NX CAM: IPW Resolution

NX CAM: IPW Resolution

NX CAM: IPW Resolution

(OP)
Hola!

Is there any way to improve the resolution of the turning IPW in NX7.5?
Currently Preferences > Visualization > Faceting > xxxViews are both set to Fine.
In the Customer Defaults > Manufacturing > Simulation & Visualization > IPW (whew!) all the resolutions are set to Fine.
I even tried doubling all values in the IPW Resolutions box from their defaults to 800/1400/2000 then restarted NX, but did not see any improvement.

Honestly, it's not a big deal, but it'd be nice to see corner rads rather than "chamfers" when I'm zoomed in and checking out details.

I don't know if the graphics card makes any difference but I'm using an Nvidia Quadro 4000.

(edit)
Hmm, I might have my terms mixed up. I'm referring to the the 2D overlay of the spun silhouette that appears during Generate and Verify Tool Path.
