The values for edge_display_quality config.pro option areLow - Decreases tessellation from normalMedium * - Normal quality of edge display. High - Increases tessellation by 2. Very_high - Increases tessellation by 3. * default valueSetting the value to Low will speed up the display but scarifying the display quality. Very High value gives you smooth edge but it consumes more graphic memories.
