Some kind of graphical/model rendering accuracy error?

Working on a model that was produced with creo then exported as a step/iges I noticed some wonkiness' with this groove that is supposed to be straight for the 'lead-in' portion of the part after opening it in fusion to start CAM. I assumed it had something to do with the source model or how it was exported until I went back into creo with a colleague and did some investigation. Opening the exported mesh file back into creo showed no such anomalies so I tried to investigate further with fusion. I created a plane where the groove looked the widest to split the model so I could measure the width of the groove at the intersection.

In doing this I noticed that as soon as I split the model, the initial area of the groove 'became' straight?!?!
After seeing that I assume the issue is not with the source file but some kind of rendering tolerance and so I ask you, beloved forums, in hopes of some kind of explanation. ❤️
I would prefer not to post the .F3d file if at all possible, thanks for your help.

Hi! I could be wrong but I don't think this is a graphical error. More than likely there is something wrong with the geometry. A simple test is to create a sketch on the split plane and project the edges.

If possible, please share the file here. Forum experts can help take a closer look to understand the issue better.

Many thanks!

Select the body in the browser, right-click and select “display detail control” from the menu.

Change it from “adaptive” to “fixed/high”. Provided feedback if that helped.

 

if it doesn’t then we definitely need to see the model, or at least the timeline of the design.

Bingo, Thank you so much Trip.

Also, Johnson, thank you for that suggested test of projecting the edges into a sketch. I tried that and it confirms it was simply a display fidelity situation solved with "display detail control"

However, I still see some anomalies and this test confirmed that the (separate) issue is present with the source file.
