Button._highquality
Availability
Flash Player 6. The global version of this function was deprecated in Flash 5 in favor of
_quality.
Usage
my_btn._highquality:Number
Description
Property (global); specifies the level of anti-aliasing applied to the current SWF file. Specify 2
(best quality) to apply high quality with bitmap smoothing always on. Specify 1 (high quality) to
apply anti-aliasing; this smooths bitmaps if the SWF file does not contain animation and is the
default value. Specify 0 (low quality) to prevent anti-aliasing.
Example
Add a button instance on the Stage and name it myBtn_btn. Draw an oval on the Stage using the
Oval tool that has a stroke and fill color. Select Frame 1 and add the following ActionScript using
the Actions panel:
myBtn_btn.onRelease = function(){
myBtn_btn._highquality = 0;
};
When you click myBtn_btn, the circle’s stroke will look jagged. You could add the following
ActionScript instead to affect the SWF globally:
_highquality = 0;
