Is there any way to control the antialiasing in Solidworks? I just want to make the circular parts look better for visual presentation.

Yes. You can change the image quality for shaded and wireframe in Tools>Options>Image Quality

This isn't exactly antialiasing, but your screen will only display so well (72 or 96 dpi).

Otherwise, settings for antialiasing are within PhotoWorks for rendering, but I don't think that's what you're looking for.

Theo is right,

Image quality has a direct affect on how clean the model looks but the location of Image quality is a document property. Tools/Options/Document Properties/Image quality Be careful with this though because remember that higher quality uses more resources..

If you wish have your edges shown with anti-Aliasing turned on, you may find that under Tools/Options/System Options/Display Selection and select "Anti-Alias Edges"

Hope that helps,


Regards,
Jon
