ABSTRACT:
A method is provided for determining fill styles for pixels. A parameter “sum fill” is calculated for each pixel. Parameter sum fill is the sum of the difference between the right fill style and the left fill style of each edge that touches the bottom border of a pixel. A parameter “fa” is then calculated for each pixel. Parameter fa is the sum of the parameters sum fill of the current pixel and the preceding pixels. The fill style of a pixel that is untouched by any edges is set equal to the parameter fa of the adjacent pixel to its right.
