Availability
Flash Player 5.

Usage

_quality

Description
Property (global); sets or retrieves the rendering quality used for a movie. Device fonts are always aliased and therefore are unaffected by the _quality property.

The _quality property can be set to the following values:

" LOW " Low rendering quality. Graphics are not anti-aliased, bitmaps are not smoothed.
" MEDIUM " Medium rendering quality. Graphics are anti-aliased using a 2 x 2 grid, in pixels, but bitmaps are not smoothed. Suitable for movies that do not contain text.
" HIGH " High rendering quality. Graphics are anti-aliased using a 4 x 4 grid, in pixels, and bitmaps are smoothed if the movie is static. This is the default rendering quality setting used by Flash.
" BEST " Very high rendering quality. Graphics are anti-aliased using a 4 x 4 grid, in pixels, and bitmaps are always smoothed.

Example
The following example sets the rendering quality to LOW :

_quality = "LOW";
