Anti-aliasing in the Standard 3D Renderer


    Rendered edge-on 3D animations, or animations where the edges of rotated layers are angled toward the viewer, can display a ragged edge if they are not accurately anti-aliased. In the Standard 3D Renderer, you now can apply more advanced anti-aliasing to those edges for a smoother appearance.

To access the Standard 3D Renderer options:

  1. Choose Composition > Composition Settings.
  2. Click the Advanced tab.
  3. Make sure that Standard 3D is displayed in the Rendering Plug-in menu and click the Options button. Choose one of the following options from the Anti-aliasing menu:
  4. Faster

    Renders the animation without employing any advanced anti-aliasing, which results in a faster render, but with possibly ragged edges on edge-on animations.

    More Accurate

    Employs advanced anti-aliasing when rendering the animation, which may slow the render time, but will create edge-on animations with smoother edges.
