Thanks, Oliver. I know how to make a torus via ParametricPlot3D[], and by using the deprecated Torus[] function. I was wondering if ExampleData[] could be adjusted so that one would have the same control as with the old Torus[] function. The reason I wanted this is that the torus produced by ExampleData[] looks much nicer than that produced by Torus[]. Or, at least, I cannot get the latter to look as smooth when rendered as the former. But maybe I should just use ParametricPlot3D[] with Mehs->None as you suggest. Thanks again for your attention.
