Circular Sweep Paths 2005-05-23 - By nigel_robinsonuk

Hullo Each,
Can anyone tell me why, when using circular sweep paths or the "torus" preset,
my cross-
section follows a perfect circle when at the same distance from the centre
point as the sweep
path, but when the cross-section is more than twice the distance from the
centre or, more
disturbingly, close to the centre point, it starts to look square?
I had imagined that a circular sweep path would ensure a consistently circular
object. My
wine glass models, for instance, have a perfectly circular base, but the thin
stem and the wide
brim start to "square out"!
I'm hoping there's some perfectly simple explanation and I just need to adjust
some setting
or other. I don't see this distortion in other peoples models.
All suggestions greatfully received.
PS: For those outside Europe, centre is how we spell center (don't ask!).
