This article has some options that can affect the quality of decals.
Solution Details
Based on our observations, the quality of the decals depends on the combination of the version of SOLIDWORKS & the video card used. To improve the representation of the silkscreen, you can do the following:a. Apply the most contrast scene on the default "Appearance" panel in SOLIDWORKS.
b. Switch to "Edit Decal" mode and set the luminous intensity to 1
Additionally, if you want to have the best, but static (or almost static) picture, you can use "Integrated preview" mode in the PhotoView add-in.
