Why there is Mixed Reflection on assembly - Inventor 2017

I having mixed reflection on my assemblies. I am using inventor 2017, recently installed to new PC using windows 10. My previous PC was Windows-7. Now when I open the assemblies created on my old PC, it shows glossy reflection as I understand this is because of the Chrome image loaded. But when I create new parts or modify existing parts it shows gray mat finish. Finally there is mixed reflection. Please see attached a snapshot.

 

Could someone help me how can I solve this issue?

 

 

 

Thanks,

Shefeek.

Hi! If I understood the issue correctly, this is related to how lighting style reacts to appearance styles from different releases (migrated vs new). The glossy one is probably migrated, right? You could either change the lighting style so that the effect is not that drastic. Or, you can open the migrated part and edit the appearance style -> change something  and change it back -> Ok. Does it look more natural now?

Many thanks!

Thank you Johnson for your reply.

This issue was solved when I have installed the Service Packs and a Hotfix available in the Autodesk Aplication.
