Try editing the settings...
In the DisplayManager, click View Appearances. Right-click an appearance and select Appearance. In the PropertyManager, click Advanced and click the Illumination tab.
Specular Spread: Controls the blurriness of reflections on a surface, making the surface appear rough or smooth. Higher values make highlights larger and softer.
Note that Specular Amount must be greater than 0. Specular Color must not be black. At least one directional, spot, or point light must illuminate the model and be enabled in PhotoView. When Blurry Reflections is disabled, affects reflections of physical lights only. When Blurry Reflections is enabled, includes environmental and self-reflections.
Reflection Amount: Controls the reflectivity of a surface, on a scale of 0 to 1. If set to 0, no reflections are visible. If set to 1, the surface simulates a perfect mirror.
Blurry Reflections: Enables blurring of reflections on surfaces. The level of blurring is controlled by Specular Spread. When Specular Spread is 0, no blurring occurs.
Note that Specular Spread and Reflection Amount must be greater than 0.
