Hi,

Have you looked at your rendering options?  Using feature simplification? Using the latest drivers on you video card?

I've drawn circles for each post mold, but they're all rendering (showing) as diamonds - squares rotated 45 degrees.  Other shapes also are not rendering quite as smoothly as drawn (freehand).
