_highquality
Description
The _highquality global property stores an integer between 0 and 2 that dictates the rendering quality of the Flash Player as follows:
0
Low quality. Neither bitmaps nor vectors are antialiased (smoothed).
1
High quality. Vectors are antialiased. Bitmaps are antialiased when no animation is occurring.
2
Best quality. Both bitmaps and vectors are always antialiased.
As of Flash 5, _highquality has been superceded by _quality, which can be used to set a movie's quality to "Medium", "AutoLow", and "AutoHigh", as well as "Low", "High", and "Best".
