You can set quickcast range indicator in options.

Let me explain how smartcast works.

Normally you have to click ability button or click icon on the tooltip then click on the ground to use skill.

Smartcast(without range indicator) will use ability at the cursor ON KEY PRESS. You click a button on your keyboard and ability is immediately used if you are in range. Example: Karthus, Cassiopeia and Yasuo's Q use this by default.

Smart cast with range indicator does the same as above, except ON KEY RELEASE. What does it mean? You can hold down your key to have exact range and AoE of ability(if available) shown. Then when you release the button you pressed ability is used. You can also cancel ability with right click as if you used normal cast.
