Anti-aliasing 61 Anti-aliasing Anti-aliasing is a technique used to smooth out the jagged edges of threedimensional curved objects or objects with diagonal edges. Anti-aliasing can be set to favor either an increase in system processing performance or improved image quality: • Setting for performance is best used when the 3D image is animated and smoothness of motion is the most important consideration. • Setting for quality is best used when having highly detailed and realistic 3D objects is the primary concern. • If you are unsure of how to configure anti-aliasing, use the Let the Application Decide option. Your display will automatically adjust to the application's requirements.

Anti-aliasing
Anti-aliasing is a technique used to smooth out the jagged edges of three-
dimensional curved objects or objects with diagonal edges.
Anti-aliasing can be set to favor either an increase in system processing
performance or improved image quality:
•
Setting for performance is best used when the 3D image is
animated and smoothness of motion is the most important
consideration.
•
Setting for quality is best used when having highly detailed and
realistic 3D objects is the primary concern.
•
If you are unsure of how to configure anti-aliasing, use the
Let the
Application Decide
option. Your display will automatically adjust
to the application’s requirements.
