Straight lines are curved

in Digitizer
Hello, when I was digitizing this morning, a couple of the pieces that I had digitized with straight lines now had curved lines when looking at them in Accumark. I digitized the same piece and a different one and checked the WDigit application and the pieces looked correct but looking at them in Accumark a few of the straight lines were curved again. Any suggestion as to what could cause this.

    I suppose there are angles bigger 120 degree. And an Accumark smoothing last ones.
    Set there an attribute N in angles.

    wdigit does not show system smoothing while you are digitizing. if the angle is smaller than a certain amount it knows its supposed to be a corner but if its above that amount then it will system smooth it and it will not be shown inside of wdigit you have to assign it as a non smoothing point when you digitize or afterward, its a good practice to digitize all corners as n points so you dont forget to go back and do it later.
