UseAntialiasing property

Remarks

Enables/disables the use of anti-aliasing algorithms for rendering the button surface (doesn't affect text rendering).

Disabling anti-aliasing can slightly improve the button rendering speed but will make the button loose in rendering quality; below you can see a sample of two identical buttons, with the left one having anti-aliasing enabled and the right one having anti-aliasing disabled.

If you take a close look to the picture above you will see that the button on the right has "jagged" borders.
