Civil 3d featureline tessellation in 3d model

Is there a setting to increase the visual tessellation of Featurelines in a 3D view. I tried reducing the middle ordinate. That recalculated the number of points on the FL. But visually it stayed the same in 3D. I'm trying to scan the Surface for errors and having the Featureline (Brealkine) that far off the points (visually) makes it look like there is a problem when there isn't. I can do some measuring to verify the point is on the line. But it takes extra time.

I've marked the point with a circle and a sphere.

I've also tried REGEN3

Accepted solution

Allen,

Have you looked at the 3D Modeling settings. Maybe this has to do with the visual style, in this particular case.

Hi Rick, Good call. However the only Visual Style that shows the Featureline in it's true location is 2DWireframe. I'm going to look at the parameters of 2DWireframe to see if I can ferret out if there is a setting I can change in the other styles to give me the arc and still see the Surface.

Thanks

Unfortunately I don't find anything I can change in any of the styles that will fix this.

Hi @AllenJessup 

This may sound too simple! but activate the 3D Viewport and zoom in close to the feature line, then simply REGEN the drawing, it should re-tesselate to shorter segments!

Hello @samir_rezk ,

Neither Regen, ReganAll or Regen3 have any effect at any zoo level.

@rl_jackson Good thought. But no. It has no effect on Featurelines. I've started a case with Autodesk. We'll see if they have anything to say.
