Hidden Line issues - circles as octagons.


James Hamilton

Question

Hello all,

 

Hope this message finds you in good health most importantly. 

 

Really struggling today with a project where I have geometry rendering correctly in open GL but will not render correctly in hidden Line. Had a quick look through the forum and could not see this as an issue. 

 

Please see attached screen shots.

 

The Open GL shows an extruded circle  drawn onto some 3d geometry.  When I render to sheet and set to hidden line I get an Octogon - rather than a circle. I've cut and pasted the geometry into a new file - same result. I've re-drawn the offending item several times - same result. New file, same result etc.,

 

The view port is set to High - but medium and low make no difference. the sheet dpi is currently 300 (up from the standard and again no change) 

 

Anyone had anything similar happen and and suggestions how to over come (i'm about to revert to doing 2d elevations and sections)

 

many thanks all
