I think it's a mistake to think of gamma as some sort of knob you can tweak for design purposes. It's not. It's something you use to properly encode the output to match the output encoding you use to talk to the end device. If there are non-linear calculations to be done in some cases (I dunno), they shouldn't be conflated with gamma-correction, they should be done explicitly in linear intensity space before gamma-correction is ever done. -miles -- Everywhere is walking distance if you have the time. -- Steven Wright _______________________________________________ Freetype mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype
