Outline · [ Standard ] · Linear+ Arc Facets

Can I control the facetting representation for a view generated in CAXA Draft ?

So I've created a standard view of a round flange with holes on a PCD. Unfortunately the bolt holes at TDC are a kind of funny offset hexagon, with two larger facets at its own TDC. The bolt holes at BTC are different, but better !

I have tried looking everywhere in CAXA but to no avail. I have tried changing the part properties - rendering - surface smoothness for the part in the 3d DRAFT scene and this does make a difference. I seem to hit a sweet spot with a smoothness of 120, either side of this (in CAXA) the facetting get worse, so much so at one point I ended up with a 10 sided polygon for the OD of the flange.

Try clicking the Regen command, if that fails please send me the Scene and Drawing (.exb) files.

The facets are reduced for performance. As Kevin stated, hit the regen command to redraw the view at the current zoom level.

ahah ! I was looking for a setting somewhere , I did'nt realise that it is a dynamic thing. I did try hitting the regen command but it did't work. But hitting the regen all command does so that has sorted it , thanks.
