Symbols | Mapping stroke to 3D-Model will distort stroke
Hi together,
recently I came accross a mapping bug with a stroke ( width 0.2 Pt ) applied to a waving flag shape used in a symbol that was mapped to a 3D model.
All details can be found at Adobe Illustrator User Forum here:

Workarounds like expanding the stroke and working with an extra path element stacked behind the flag shape did not help.
The only workaround that will help is rendering the elements to an image and implement the placed and not linked image with the symbol for mapping. A workaround that I do not like at all because my vector objects will be gone.
All test files attached as a zip file that I renamed to *.txt because Illustrator Feedback will not allow to attach zip files. Thanks for that hack go to Peter Kahrel who recently did this with a bug report on Adobe InDesign Uservoice!
So if you want to unzip the provided file first RENAME it with suffix *.zip. Thanks.

All tests done with German Adobe Illustrator CC 2019 version 23.0.2 on Windows 10. Some tests on the same machine with German Illustrator CS6 where I already can see the same issues.

Download some new samples 5 and 6 where I tried some workarounds. But in vain.
Also added all screenshots I did and posted at Adobe Illustrator Forum:https://www.dropbox.com/s/gf6xc560ijkiigv/BUG-Distorted-Shape-With-Mapped-Symbol-5-6.zip?dl=0

I updated the forum thread with some clever workarounds. At least I thought they were clever enough to circumvent the issue with the mapping. Not so. Had no luck. Details here and in posts below in the same thread:
