Aliased 3D Window Output

Hi,
when we work we often save out quick views from the 3D window as JPGs to discuss as we design a model.

In previous version of ArchiCAD, the output would look nice and anti-aliased, much like the better OpenGL settings.

It seems in 19 that even though I have OpenGL active in the 3D Window Settings, saving from the 3D window outputs a horribly aliased version that looks more like the Internal Engine.

My process is exactly the same as in previous versions (navigate in the 3D window, then choose File, Save As) - am I missing something?

Think this was discussed a while back, as I recall changing the 2D anti-alias setting in work-environment had influence on how the 3D view was saved.

Options > Work Environment > User Preference Schemes > Advanced Redraw Options > 2D Drawing Antialiasing

Yep, that's done it - ticking the 2D box fixes the 3D...

Thanks!
