Flash Lite 2.x and 3.0 ActionScript Language Reference

_quality (MovieClip._quality property)

public _quality : String

Sets or retrieves the rendering quality used for a SWF file. Device fonts are always aliased and therefore are unaffected by the _quality property.

The _quality property can be set to the following values:

Value

Description

Graphic Anti-Aliasing

"LOW"

Low rendering quality.

Graphics are not anti-aliased.

"MEDIUM"

Medium rendering quality. This setting is suitable for movies that do not contain text.

Graphics are anti-aliased using a 2 x 2 pixel grid.

"HIGH"

High rendering quality. This setting is the default rendering quality setting that Flash uses.

Graphics are anti-aliased using a 4 x 4 pixel grid.

"BEST"

Very high rendering quality.

Graphics are anti-aliased using a 4 x 4 pixel grid.

Note: Although you can specify this property for a MovieClip object, it is also a global property, and you can specify its value simply as _quality.

Example

This example sets the rendering quality of a movie clip named my_mc to LOW:

my_mc._quality = "LOW";
