      There are a few things that might resolve this problem: In File > SpaceClaim Options: 1. In Popular, adjust your setting for Rendering Quality and/or Anti-Aliasing. The default values are 5 and Off, respectively. Test a few combinations 2. In Advanced, set the Renderer option differently. I recommend Direct3D11 if your PC supports it. OpenGL may also work. Make sure you do not set it to Direct3D9 while using Anti-aliasing (low, med, or high). 3. Update the drivers for the graphics card itself from the manufacturer website.
