Hi @jasper,

This is very strange. VisualARQ doesn’t do anything special related to antialiasing.

Looking at the capture, it seems more related to wrong linetype display than antialiasing.
Does this happen with any document?

No, I opened a new document without any template and don’t have the problem there.

The problem goes away if I tell Rhino to use an older OpenGL Version (2.x). I get other problems using the older version though, like colors defaulting to grey while moving the view.

I reset the Display Mode “Shaded” to its original settings. All the linetype settings are default, the linetype scale is set to 1. Rhino Objects on the same layer - even if i turn them into a VisualARQ Element - are displayed correctly.
