Extruded solid changed shape

I use 2013 and saved for 2004. i opened again, i don't remember when it occurred, but the extruded shapes in the picture got a sinking at their tops.

When i copy a solid to another, empty file, it's neat, smooth, without these sinkings

Hi,

 

>> I use 2013 and saved for 2004

A simple answer to that, don't save as drawing back to a file format a decade ago.

 

Objects (especially 3D) that are common to be used nowadays can't be handled with old releases, therefor AutoCAD needs to convert the to old object-types ... and these old types do not have the same possibilities of geometric complexity.

Hi @Karol-Or,

 

I suggest always saving in the current file format whenever possible. If you are sharing the data with others and they need to use it in an older version let them do the conversion on their side with DWG Trueview.

 

Whenever you save to a different file format or type there is the possibility of data being changed, converted, or corrupted.

Hi,

 

>> but i will save as 2007

I fully agree with @john.vellek and would like to add that statement:

Never ever save your working files back to an old version, stay at the current release. If someone else want to have it saved back then you can run command _SAVEAS or command -EXPORTTOAUTOCAD and create a new file based on your current content ... but that file is a copy for anyone else, you  should always continue with your file in the current format.

 

I already listed >>>here<<< some of the reasons why saving back of the working files should be avoided.
