Summary

Is it possible to choose the detail level of the vdPolyface that are created from .DWG solids during import?

Solution

A new property DwgMeshTessellation of vdDocument.FileProperties was added in version 7015.0.5

Specify the tessellation quality of imported dwg 3d solid circular surfaces (such as Cone, Torus, Sphere or Cylinder), in order to convert to vdPolyface objects.
It is measured in degrees. The value of this parameter determines the quantity of mesh cells (triangles) used to represent a circular surface
Valid range betrween 0 to 360.Default value is 15.

Example

document.FileProperties.DwgMeshTessellation = 45;//this will tesselate a Cylinder to 360/45 = 8 segments
