Summary
As you convert objects to surfaces, you can specify whether the resulting object
is smooth or faceted.
When you convert a mesh, the smoothness and number of faces of the
resulting surface are controlled by the
SMOOTHMESHCONVERT (page 1479)
system variable. Whereas the previous example shows a conversion to a
smooth, optimized surface, the following example shows a conversion to a
faceted surface in which the faces are not merged, or optimized.
