40Initial value:
This setting affects mesh that is converted from another object using the
MESHSMOOTH (page 640) command. (For a complete list of objects that can
be converted to mesh, see
Objects That Can Be Converted to Mesh (page 641).)
Use this setting to retain visual consistency between mesh objects that have
the same shape but different sizes. You can enter any non-negative number
between 0 (zero) and 180. Lowering the value increases the density in areas
of high curvature and decreases density in flatter areas.
Lowering the value might increase the drawing file size, and should be saved
for larger objects with high
FACETERDEVSURFACE (page 1327) settings. Avoid
lowering this value for objects with small details such as holes or fillets.
