Hi Mark,

Thanks for the quick answer, I set the stroke number to 100 and now the arcs appear very much like arcs in 3D view.

There is another problem here though, as I define the template as tunnel lining (void in the internal space inside tunnel intrados, when the display style is set to modelling, the internal spaces are all filled. Anyway to solve this? Maybe I should start a new thread concerning this as the original issue is well solved.

Thanks again,
Chris

Hi Chris.

ORD doesnt create extruded circle solids, but Meshes based on points and this is also how it does Circles. You can increase the "smoothness" by setting the number of points you want it to create via a variable noted in the links below.
