When drawing an image to a Graphics2d using the Direct Draw / Direct 3d pipeline, I'm encountering an odd issue with bilinear interpolation: the bilinear interpolation seems to be applied to every 256x256 block of the source image separately. This results in a "seaming" artifact at the borders of each 256x256 block. Within each block, the interpolation makes sense, but there's a sharp discontinuity where the blocks meet.
The artifact is always present where the 256x256 block boundaries occur in the source image, regardless of how large or small the image is scaled on screen. Disabling the DirectDraw pipeline eliminates the artifact. Is this a known problem? Is there an easy workaround? I'll post a brief code sample that demonstrates the problem in a follow up post. I've reproduced the issue on ATI and nVidia cards on 1.6.10 and 1.6.11, on XP and on Vista. - Paul Jacobs [Message sent by forum member 'jacobspd' (jacobspd)] http://forums.java.net/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=328513 =========================================================================== To unsubscribe, send email to lists...@java.sun.com and include in the body of the message "signoff JAVA2D-INTEREST".
