Abstract
A graphics system has a rendering space divided into a plurality of rectangular areas, each being sub-divided into a plurality of smaller rectangular areas of a plurality of pixels. Data is received representing a tiled set of polygons to be rendered in a selected one of the rectangular areas. For each polygon, a determination is made whether that polygon is located at least partially inside a selected one of the smaller rectangular areas in the selected rectangular area. If so, which pixels of the plurality of pixels in the selected smaller rectangular area are inside the polygon are identified. Or, if that polygon is not located at least partially inside the selected smaller rectangular area, no further processing of the polygon is performed at one or more of the plurality of pixels in the smaller rectangular area.
