Jeff P. is on a distinguished road
So I'm trying to import a geometry into Ansys Mesher that has a shallow curved face. The problem is that the minimum angle between segments means that the boundary is not smooth once imported, it appears faceted. Is there any way to reduce the minimum angle between geometry facets and improve the curve quality? This isn't a mesh resolution issue.

I'm importing using Solidworks & Step files. Each gives the same issue.
