When I make a revolve (sometimes), the geometry does not match what it was supposed to and has many angles that were not supposed to be there. When I put into a drawing it seems fine, all I am worried about is when I go to do this in CAM, that it will follow the incorrect geometry.
If it wont do anything and its just a visual problem with Solid Edge than I can live with that, but I would just like to be safe.

Thanks

Have you tried adjusting the 'sharpen' setting in SE?

By default this is set at '2' to get better performance if memory serves, but this means that circles may appear as octagons or the like.

That is exactly what it was. I thought it had something to do with the just the graphics but it was still discerning.

Thank You
