I'm trying to organize my family library, and part of that means making sure each thumbnail view of the family is up to date and useful.  That being said, I have a lot of more complex models where the outlines of polygons used to model the object show up, even in the preview.  And at that scale, they are distracting.  I have tried switching to consistent colors and realistic view, but the lines stay.  btw I'm using Revit Arch. 2011)  

An example would be something like erland73's Airbus (http://www.revitcity.com/downloads.php?action=view&object_id=7455) 

The thumbnail [attached, below] has all of the black lines of the tubular plane body, but the wings look fine.  I find this prevalent especially among the vehicle models.  Does this have to do with models imported from 3DSMax or other programs?

Thanks.
