Becouse it is rounded when you move surface outside. If you use only cylinder
in your isosurface then just use threshold keyword of isosurface to make
surface. If you want cylinder as part of bigger iso_csg then use IC_Threshold
macro as described in documentation.

The same way. Use threshold.

The same way. Just use result of macros in IsoCSG as blob component.
Sorry, have no time to make examples at this moment. Tell me if it is
necessary.
