It seems I have an issue with displaying objects with the object viewer. When viewing a corridor on my computer I get a bunch of jagged edges. Looking at the same corridor on a different machine it looks just fine (see attached screen shots). Any ideas?

My workstation is doing the same thing. I actually just got up-graded to a "better" station but in object viewer it is making all the breaklines appear jagged. My previous station was slow in object viewer but did not have this jagged problem. If you or anyone else have figured out what the problem is please let me know. Thanks.

What I read on the Autodesk Discussions and tested is if your objects are a good distance from 0,0,0. Supposedly AutoCAD can't handle 7 digits or more in the X Y. Moving the object closer to 0,0 fixed it on my system. Sucks since all our stuff is in state plains coords.

The issue for me turned out to be a video card driver problem. It was easily fixed by downloading and installing the latest driver for my card.

For me it looks like its a combination of the large X Y coords and graphic card. I'm running a Quadro 1700FX with the latest drivers and performance drivers. If I move the objects closer to 0,0,0 they look fine. If I turn off hardware acceleration and leave the objects in their original location, they look fine. Just everything gets slower.
