Improving the Rendering of Small Curves in Large Assemblies
To improve tessellation of the small curves in large size assemblies, such as holes or bolts that are being displayed as square or hexagonal, you can try to reduce the value of Edge Angle (deg) in theTessellation pane of the > sub-tab. This defines the maximum angle between the tessellations around the edge of small features. The default Edge Angle (deg) is 75 degrees. If you set a smaller value, the smoothness of the curves improves, but the size of the viewable files increase. You can find an optimal compromise for the data being published.
To change the Edge Angle (deg) in any adapter's recipe file:
1. Open the Adapter recipe file in Admin mode. For example: bin\rcpedit.exe -admin proe2pv.rcp.
2. Select the > sub-tab.
3. Type a value for Edge Angle (deg).
4. Click Save.
5. Repeat steps 2 to 4, trying angles between 5 and 20 degrees, until you find the optimum balance between the smoothness of the curves and the file size of your assemblies.
