Hi Shawn,

Quoting shawnmorel <[email protected]>:

- I use something better than pixel coverage: pre filtering.

    
   I’m actually really curious about this. Is there a version of this
paper that you own copyrights to that you could point us to?
   http://ip.com/IPCOM/000232657

You can download it freely
from 
http://www.defensivepublications.org/publications/prefiltering-antialiasing-for-general-vector-graphics
Would you be interested in creating a clean, totally not optimized
(and thus slow), stand alone version of the rasterizer just for
exposition purposes? Something for people like me to learn from?
Again, I know you have very limited time. No rush.
        


Yes, I could do that. The features provided would be just drawing some
shapes or glyphs, not unlike the snippet above, but trimmed of all
superfluous Morphic stuff and experiments. Just give me a few days and
I'll prepare it, in addition to fixing the "saturated color pixels" bug
you mentioned.

  I’d also add that for a newcomer, it might even help your
rasterization ideas spread more. Much of the discussion
here http://www.jvuletich.org/Morphic3/Morphic3-201006.html starts with
a discussion about improving on morphic, priming me to think about GUI
toolkits and problems that arise there. Much of the meat of the content
is about the rasterization ideas, which in my mind are quite different.
e.g. you could build many things on the new rasterizer and you could
build a new guy toolkit on many different rasterizers :)
   

Sure.​ Thanks for the feedback!

Juan Vuletich
