maybe I just need to find the right settings? any ideas?
my openGL settings are identical between 7 and 8
What are your Windows Display settings:
- Scale and layout
- Display resolution
In Rhino Options > View > OpenGL
- What is your Antialiasing setting?
1920x1080 at 100% scale, landscape
OpenGL 4x anti-aliasing, with GPU tessellation checked (same on 7 and 8)
@Will_Wang you could tune the looks with TestWireThicknessScale
@Gijs
Excellent idea, thanks
I have to say that although it has helped me with the wireframe view, it has also increased isocurves line weight, rendering surfaces messier. Something about the Rhino 7 graphics just looks better…
I am having the same issue, something doesnt look right…
I already pushed the anti aliasing to the max

Hello,
Like many users I have had this problem too. It took me a while to figure out it was an anti-aliasing issue and find this thread, which was a bit frustrating.
For those who sees this and want a good workaround, I tested Kelvin Cheng’s one in the RH-78744 thread and it worked well. You can find it here.
Do we know when McNeel is going to release a update to fix this ?
Thanks,
Maxime
Hi Maxime -
You are welcome to use that workaround, but you need to understand that not all OpenGL features that Rhino uses are available when running under earlier versions of OpenGL.
RH-78744 is currently on the 8.x list.
Note that perception of “quality” differs, both between individuals and between hardware. The display of objects in Rhino is something that is constantly being worked on, and not something that will ever stop being worked on.

Thanks for your reply Wim, much appreciated.
I’ll keep in mind the eventual OpenGL compatibility issues.
And it is not just perception sadly, while lines look faint indeed (at least for me), it is also simply hard to figure out what are the assigned lineweights in print view mode, which means I would need to print to pdf/jpg very frequently to know exactly what’s happening.
Anyway, I’ll wait for the update which hopefully will come soon.
Best,
Maxime
It seems to be more of a problem with your graphics card driver than with Rhino. Attached is a screenshot from Rhino 8 and everything is smoothed out properly there even though my model is georeferenced.
RH-78744 is fixed in Rhino 8 Service Release 10

8.10 on the left. 7 on the right. Same display settings as far I can tell.
I can certainly live with it but just thought you might wanna know.

hi @Will_Wang pls not that it was announced but after that the issue was reopened.
Since I am looking at youtrack (RH-78744) once in a while the state changed to ‘next up’ (if that is new) 
Thanks!
Anti-Aliasing still looks worse in V8 SR13 compared to v7. I am still sticking to v7 because of this visual difference.

Not saying this will never get better, but you might end up waiting a long time…
