DRAWINGVIEWQUALITY system variable

Quality of drawing views

Specifies the quality of drawing views.

You can significantly reduce the time needed to generate drawing views by changing the DRAWINGVIEWQUALITY setting to 0. This enables draft-quality drawing views. Such drawing views are internally represented as 3D solids, which makes it impossible to put annotations on their silhouette edges. However, they look very similar to a precise (high-quality) drawing view and you can use them to quickly create layouts.
