Hi guys,

Probably a very simple problem, but its frustrating me that I can't solve it...

How can I change my part to have smooth curved edges, I already have edge quality on very high and anti aliasing on highest too... I cant see any other option to change this

Does anybody know the answer?

Cheers,

Try changing your accuracy to a smaller number.
Or, set shade quality higher.
 
Hi, that didnt work unfortunately, still have the issue if anyone else has ideas!
 
These are my settings, they result in very smooth arcs.
Edge quality: very high, turn off anti-aliasing, shade quality: 5.
 
You mean shade quality set to 50 right?

If that doesn't work then get a new graphics card
 
NO, I have mine set at 5. Isn't necessary to set it any higher for my needs.
 
that shouldn´t have anything to do with accuracy.

What happend when you maxed your shade quality? (btw, I have seen that the filesize can increase when you increase your number over 10, dont know why since the model dont change... that wasn´t a problem before when "max" was 10)

Hm, what's going on there?
 
I have first hand experience that accuracy does affect this. What accuracy is your part using (check it at File > Prepare > Model Properties > Accuracy)?
