ABSTRACT:
A method and system for highlighting typography along a geometric path by a graphics system that includes a dashing feature is disclosed. The dashing feature is first used to determine the shape of the geometric path along a segment on which the typography is positioned. The dashing feature is then used to dash the segment with a non-repeating pattern. After dashing, the segment is outset from the geometric path to create an upper path, and inset from the geometric path to create a lower path. The method and system further includes connecting the upper and lower paths to create a new shape, and then filling-in the new shape to provide a field of continuous highlighting.
