circle look like rectangle

circle look like rectangle

(OP)
Hello everyone,
I`ve got a problem with view in model. I receive an assembly in which was made a circle, but on model it look like rectangle. When I click on "Information" and next "Object" and I mark this "circle" the information which I receive is "ellipse".
I supposed that constructor apply some simplification... Could someone help what should I do, to see a circle, not rectangle

Best regards

RE: circle look like rectangle

Goto Preferences - Visualization - Faceting - there you will find 2 Tolerance fields , change this into fine or extra fine and see if it makes any difference.  

Best regards,

unfortunatly this not working... the effect is still the same...

RE: circle look like rectangle

are you loading light weight representations? can you right click on the part and chose "show exact" which will load the full model data rather than just a faceted representation?

Best regards

Try Preferences - Visualization - line - curve tolerance and see what is set.

Forcing a view regeneration usually helps: View -> Operation -> Regenerate Work.

RE: circle look like rectangle

hello all. I find the way why it looks how it looks. If I open this model in UG using TC 8. But if I export this part like a parasololid or using function "export from TC" and next close UG, and open "normal" UG this hole look like a hole, but I can`t measure radius because some how during this export, sketch didn`t export. Could any one help me? Please...
