Some of AutoCAD commands that deal with solid modeling reveal a hidden option called RESFIT. For example, enter an invalid response to the Fillet command:
Select an edge or [Chain/Radius]: asdf*Invalid selection*
Expects a point or Edge/Chain/Radius/RESFIT
Select an edge or [Chain/Radius]: resfit
< 0.001000000000000>:
Resfit is short for "resolution fit." ACIS uses it as the fit tolerance value when approximating curves and surfaces.

Generally, it is NOT a good idea to change any of the ACIS tolerances - RESABS, RESFIT, RESNOR. Do so at your own risk.

Older AutoCAD versions (than 2007) do not display this option but RESFIT still works there (2006, 2005, 2004).
