Options to show beautiful circles?

[skanskan]

I have a model where circles and arcs are not shown very well.

If I edit the sketch they looks like perfect arcs, but when I exit the sketch the resulting edges of the body look like an 12 edges polygon.

What options I have to change to make arcs look better, softer?
I've already tried changing the tolerance.

All non-wireframe displays are based on faceted models (that how graphics displays work). When you draw lines and arcs they are rendered as exact objects, but the solid model created from them have to be tessellated (faceted) for them to be rendered by the graphics system. You can change the display tolerance to get a 'better' images but if set too tight it will have a negative impact on performance. You just need to accept the fact that you are actually getting what you want even if it does not always look like that's the case.
