The reason is that otherwise you cannot render pixel-perfect adjacent polygons without occasional overlap (especially for non-straight connecting lines). So really drawRect() is the odd one out, as Caolan suggested. ...and now you know why the code is so littered with this +1/-1 corrections for rectangles. The (now gone) software renderer in basebmp had some comments about those subtleties, and some explicit adjustments in the svp backend layer above. Cheers, -- Thorsten
