Hi Jérémie,
Ah good to hear!
I'm not a big fan of this fact that line simplification is turned on by
default in QGIS. I believe that users should consciously turn it on if
they want it!
Your example shows that it can lead to confusion (understandably).
Good that it works now. Note that you can override this setting on a per
layer base in the layer properties - so not all layers need to have the
same setting.
Greetings,
Andreas
