    Large Radius does not look correct

    Hi,

    So I have a part that is 7.5 in length and on one side has a 78 inch radius. I have created part just fine but when I created the radius it appears as a straight line. I'm sure there is some tolerance setting in Bobcad (V24) that can be adjusted so that the radius will visually looks correct??

    Attached is the drawing along with the toolpath (which visually looks correct). Notice the line is "straight".

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Preferences-Part (or Default)-Wireframe quality. Crank it to the right to see a very shallow curve.

    You will want to work at a lower value with larger, heavy models.. You can crank it up with more simple stuff, or if you have a beefy enough display adapter.
