An issue for the Pro's here???

I'm not about to rehash the looooong thread of about a week ago started by the self proclaimed "King of Inventor". But I posted a thread in the Customer files group titled "Surface Graphics..." that I thought some of you here might be able to shed some light on.

Besides, ever since Ann deleted the thread, I haven't seen any input from "Elvis" as I call him...:)
Problem is, I know who he is...had to work with him.
Anyways, I wish Ann didn't delete the thread, it was well worth a few laughs during the workday.

It's a problem with how Inventor is creating the
display mesh for the part.  With any system, at some point the  model
is converted to a set of triangles and that's what's actually used for the
display.  For some reason Inventor is incorrectly creating the triangles in
this case.  It is limited to the display of the part.  The underlying
geometry is correct.  You can verify this by creating a drawing view
of the part.  During the preview and when the view is imprecise you see the
bad display, but once it's finished calculating the precise view it will be
correct.  The preview and imprecise view are based on the display mesh from
the part.  The precise view is created using the original geometry.
