Force AA with Quadro FX 3700

Force AA with Quadro FX 3700

(OP)
Sorry for my english... Hello to all, this is my first message.
I have a problem with SolidWorks 2009 x64 sp2 on Vista 64.
I have a Nvidia Quadro FX 3700 and i can't force antialiasing hardware via driver.

RE: Force AA with Quadro FX 3700

I'm on XP x64, and see the same grayed out antialiasing -setting, when you go to Manage 3d settings. It is grayed out as Application-controlled. Why would you want it controlled somewhere other than in the application? Its grayed out because there are no other options to select.

AA can be controlled in SolidWorks, PhotoWorks, and Photoview.

Thanx but the problem is not in setting... i would like force aa in driver to have an hardware aa and not software aa. When i select aa 4x.. 8x in the nvidia control panel ... in solidworks aa don't work...

RE: Force AA with Quadro FX 3700

In the Manage 3D Settings > Program Settings de-select the Show programs installed on this computer option. That should expand the applications/programs dropdown list to include Dassault Sytemes SolidWorks. You should then be able to change individual settings.  

cheers

No one that have my problem?

RE: Force AA with Quadro FX 3700

Try uninstalling the driver, rebooting and then re-installing, with any anti-virus disabled.

Thanks for your interesting. Yes i have only one card. I have contacted nvidia and i'm waiting for a response.
But it is possible that only happen to me? In your systems is all ok?
 

RE: Force AA with Quadro FX 3700

I have the same problem.

Vista Ultimate 64 + PNY Quadro FX3700 + SWX2009 = No AA via Nvidia Driver. It is anoying because the AA of SWX2009 is worse than AA of SWX2008. This problem is known by SWX.

Vista Ultimate 64 + PNY Quadro FX3700 + SWX2008 = AA via Nvidia driver does work

I tried out a lot of things. Nothing helps until now.

Sorry for my english. German would be better.

greetings
