ABSTRACT:
A computer readable storage medium includes executable instructions to accept a set of document objects, wherein each document object is associated with a z-order. A document object in the set of document objects is passed to a pre-rendering region comprising a stack of one or more panes, wherein the document object is added in z-order. The document object is checked against each pane in the stack for document object overlap, beginning with a topmost pane, until a pane selected from one of a bottommost pane and an overlap pane is reached. The document object is associated with a pane selected from one of the bottommost pane and a pane above the overlap pane. The pane above the overlap pane is selected from one of a pane in the stack and a new pane added to the top of the stack.
