Try rendering a scene with a v. high frequency normal pattern. I've gone as high
as depth 5 to get good anti aliasing.

Sheesh! I've never run across such notorious examples! I really don't have
_that_ much experience with antialiasing; I've only done a few renderings on
a _fairly_ advanced scene and compared the differences.
A aa-depth of 5 would _drastically_ slow down render time on a complex scene
where really only a few objects actually need it. What about
object-dependent aa? You could attach a number to an object (maybe in the
finish-block) that "hints" povray on how accurate it must be rendered. When
you turn on aa, rays that hit the object in question get super-sampled
_more_ than others. I don't know, but it doesn't seen too difficult.
Speedup? Most likely.
Simen.

This should be possible for the object's texture(and of course
reflections or refractions), but the edges would only be antialiased to
the level specified by the object if the first ray hit the object.
Still, it would be a useful feature.

Thanks everyone for your help. I haven't been ignoring you, promise!
Doh!@ me, though, for not finding where the command line was! Hehe!
(early days!)
I've been playing around with it. It's quite inter-
esting. I haven't mastered it yet, so you can all relax! :o)
Do I hear some sighs of relief?
One quick question while I'm here. How can I delete
a file from the file menu? I can't find any reference to deletion at all.
Or isn't it possible?
Thanks again guys, ~Steve~
