For what it's worth, real-time anti-aliasing rendering has been turned off in 
ParaView because it wrecks havoc with many of the features involving rendering 
including picking, parallel rendering, transparency rendering, and tiled large 
image screen shots.  Like Vincent suggested, if you need a high-quality screen 
shot, make one that is larger than you need (ParaView can generate arbitrarily 
large screen shots) and then shrink it to the size you want using an 
appropriate smoothing filter (most simple image viewing programs have this 
feature).  If the aliasing is really bothering you while you are using 
ParaView, get a larger display and sit farther back. ;)

Subject: Re: [Paraview] anti aliasing

Hi,

I don't know how to activate anti-aliasing directly in image file output 
process, but a way to achieve it is to render with an increase resolution 
(let's say double ligns and columns, i.e. x4 on pixel numbers) and after to 
externally resize the image files.

Anti-aliasing done by the resizing process, which can be automated with many 
free softwares, generally produces good results.

Regards, Vincent

Hello,
I would like to use anti-aliasing on my scenes that I create in ParaView and 
output as image files. I have included 3D-models (.stl triangulated surfaces) 
in the scenes but they look rather poor in certain camera positions without 
anti-aliasing. I haven't found out how to activate this in ParaView though.
