About rasterization

1046

When an operation triggers a rasterization on a group, the following occurs:

A rasterization indicator (a small red box containing an “R”) appears next to the parameter in
the Properties Inspector.

Rasterization indicator

A small outline surrounds the rasterized group in the Layers list and Timeline. This is called a
rasterization frame.

Rasterization frame

Unlike vector graphics, rasterized 2D groups may lose quality when scaled if the Fixed Resolution
checkbox is selected in the Group Inspector.

Important:

3D particle emitters, 3D replicators, and nonflattened text objects are treated as 3D

groups for rasterization.

To learn more about how rasterization affects different types of objects, choose a topic in the
Help table of contents (the sidebar to the left of this window).
