It is hard to say what is wrong without seeing all the code you used to
display the IDLgrPolygon object without using xobjview.

Are you using the same IDLgrPolygon object in your scene AND for xobjview?
With the same property settings? It almost sounds like you have different
STYLE property settings for each case, which shouldn't be happening if you
are using the same grPolygon object.

How about the QUALITY setting in your grWindow? If set to 0, the polygon
will draw as a wireframe instead of solid.

Do you have any IDLgrLights in your scene?

The problem could be any of the above. We could help more if we see some
code.
