Sharp point is created when revolving a round sketch

Hey all

I'm having an issue with revolving a circular/domed profile. The issue is that using the revolve feature, causes a sharp point to appear on a sphere (see image attached).

In the past. on more complex parts, i have used tangential patches to overcome this issue, however, this is not suitable for every use case. Does anyone have a solution to this?

There has to be a more simple way/solve.....but I created a .001 fillet on the corner at the top center of the sketch and it removed the point.
I am sure that someone more versed in Fusion will come along with a better solve, so wait and see the other suggestions.

Hi,

That's just a display issue. Changing the detail settings reduces the effect.
