Hi,
V8
what setting fixes the quality of this ?
Its a shock to the system, having been working on this in V5, open file in V8 and its like a fine black fishing line with black ants running along it !
its a blotchy mess.
Cheers

I believe that is this bug:
RH-83262 Curves are thickening when zooming out
Can you send that curve?
nvm, I see the curve in the other thread, thanks, I’ve added this thread.
here again anyway.
smooth curve seen in V5.3dm (251.1 KB)

and v8 below

I’ve already included the file in the YT. I see this with polylines having many short segments. For example, if you changedegree to degree 2 or higher, this issue will disappear.
@Gijs
What is the YT ?
also I am doing ChangeDegree for everything I create that is projected to mesh, but will this bite me in the bum later on , or is degree2 going to allow me to do everything I do with the default curves I draw with the Curve Interpolate Points tool I use, as well as the curves I get from projections to mesh. With the latter I use divide (usually 30) then place lines or circles through the points to get sections I can work with ?

I posted this a couple posts back 
I was wondering what YT stood for, as an abbreviation.
also quessie bite in bum need to know.
Steve
you can always go back to degree 1, using SimplifyCrv
YT: YouTrack, our bug tracking system
so deg2 is a better curve pedigree versus mongrel !! than deg1, I didnt know what the projections were,
and YT is YouTrack, which I want aware of, BR bug Report would have been undersstood !
Steve
no, degree 2 is not ‘better’ than degree 1, it just happens to be a stupid workaround for this particular issue, and probably has to do with how line segments are optimized. But @stevebaer knows a lot more about this.
