Some holes not rendering well

brian_wood

See pics.Most holes in my full assembly model look round. But all of the larger holes on the front bracket, as well as the fan guard, do not. They look fine in the assembly and parts views for those items. Why?

Hi.

OS adjusts the tesselation values depending on how busy the model is to maintain performance. I'd imagine this is why they look to have fine detail on their own but not as part of a large assembly.  It's just the on screen rendering though, the actual geometry is not changed.

That's all well and good, but when I am using screen grabs to create images for the manual, I need the resolution to be closer to reality.

You might wanna use some renderer for that purpose. But I would agree that there should be a button to set priority on quality with the expense of performance. That could be also option for saved views as screenshots are the main purpose of having better 'work' quality.

For some odd reason, it is all rendering just fine today. Must be the humidity in the air.

@brian_wood , Did you remove any parts or features from the model? If so that could change the tessellation quality. We try to optimize the tessellation settings to ensure good performance and graphics. Giving users more control on the tessellation settings is something we are considering.

Hi.  With the current method is the performance of the local machine taken into consideration or is it just set with regards to model complexity?  (Just wondering if better kit our end would make any difference as it stands today.)

Cheers,

Hi @owen_sparks,

  Currently the tessellation settings are based solely on model complexity. However, we have plans to take individual machine performance characteristics into account and adjust tessellation quality accordingly.

@brian_wood, Can you please open a support ticket for this issue? You will be notified when we do make changes to improve the graphics quality.

Thanks

Thanks @Paul_J_Premakumar, that makes perfect sense.

Cheers, Owen S.
