Illustrator's Round Outline Bevel with Standard Lighting Causes Weird Shadow
Added a custom "round outline" bevel with "standard" lighting and ended up with a weird shadow effect in the upper-right corner of the 'g' in this logo that I can't seem to get straightened out. It seems to be a bug in the overall process.

Yeah, Dave, the quality of self-shading used for then new 3D is fixed in this version and can’t be adjusted. Even if you make the top line straight (it is not) and tweak the path to force a better tessellation on the object, the glitch you are getting stays there, unfortunately. The developer is aware of this already and I hope some changes will come next version to address this.
Thanks for reporting it! -
