Additional Information

ArcGIS Desktop (including ArcGIS Engine and ArcObjects) is in mature support and will be retired March 1, 2026. Mature support means the end of functionality-based patches and hotfixes; therefore, this issue will not be addressed. There are no plans for future releases of ArcGIS Desktop, and it is recommended that you migrate to ArcGIS Pro. See Migrate from ArcMap to ArcGIS Pro for more information. https://www.esri.com/en-us/arcgis/products/arcgis-pro/resources/migrate

Workaround

Running the CLEAN command resolves the issue. However, the technical support team is no longer able to install ArcInfo Workstation (no 32-bit machines left), therefore, it is not possible to test this workaround.

Exporting the polygons to a shapefile and running the Repair Geometry tool does resolve the issue, but the display of the source data needs to be consistent without converting to another format.
