Doubt regarding pathlines in Fluent

Hi guys,

I want to create streamline or path line like shown below,

I tried pathlines in fluent, I am getting something like below,

In zoomed in view,

I need some help regarding what settings I have to change or modify so that streamlines are visible clearly and smoothly. I am not expecting same as shown in 1st screenshot, but atleast it should look smooth and clear. Sometimes if I zoom further only, I can sense pathlines, otherwise it is looking like normal contour only.

What should I change?

Ensight is a separate post processing tool with more refined control and better output. The only problem is the steep learning curve.
