Abstract
Dynamic spread anti-aliasing is described. In some embodiments, a filled object is segmented into control tiles. Along the object border, multiple exterior control tiles respectively correspond to multiple curves forming the border. For each curve, one side is filled and the other is anti-aliased to smooth the appearance of the filled object. Each exterior control tile is expanded to create an expanded control tile having a spread zone that includes additional pixels. For example, a control triangle is transformed into a control rectangle, and the control rectangle is enlarged to create an expanded control rectangle by extending an edge outward and away from the curve on the side to be anti-aliased. The additional pixels of the spread zone are subjected to anti-aliasing, such as by applying alpha modulation to the pixels based on respective distances between the pixels and the curve. For subpixel zoom levels, pixel color can be adjusted.
