Why has my resolution changed

Since the latest update my models are granny in appearance.  The odd thing is that I can go back into an old model and make something and it looks fine.  I looked through my preferences but didn't see anything wrong.

Hello!

Could you post an example file of each one please? That way we can figure out if it's a file issue or a system issue.

Thanks!

Here are two files. 

 

Edit

Thanks Xander for the smack in the back of the head.   I import all my sketches and just assume they are fine.  This time some of the lines in my sketch are made up of hundreds of short sections. It is drawing each section and that of course will create an edge.

 

Sorry if that is not the technical explanation, but it's the best I can give.

Sorry for the late reply! I actually couldn't manage to get the "after update" file to open on my computer without crashing my entire computer (my power supply was dying). Got that all sorted out now though!

Anyways, this is a bit of a strange one. It seems that your arcs have been broken up into line segments. That's why they are appearing so grainy. Do you have other files affected like this or is it only this file?

You say you are importing the sketches, can you tell me what format you are import and attach that file as well?

Thanks!

I'm importing them as dxf files.  The lines (curves) where broken down into segments because I used a command in my 2D software (DesignCAD 3D Max) to change a curve to a line so I could perform another operation on them  I converted the problem segments back to curves and it works fine now. 

 

Obviously this had nothing to do with resolution or Fusion, and was just a bad imported drawing.
