It is very obvious that there is a shallow white edge on the boundary between the two rectangles.

The email questioned:

As you can see there is a brighter line between the two rectangles. I

Know where it is from-this is a result of alpha blending of two

Partially covered scanlines. And this is a problem form me.

Do you have any idea how to get rid of this line? I mean how to make

It in the same color as the rectangles. My application draws metafiles

And sometimes there are such shapes in them and I get ugly banded

Drawings... Do you have any ideas?

Here is the author's explanation:

It's a well known problem that can't be eliminated easily. It exists in

All SVG engies and appears as thin "web" upon the p_w_picpath, when you draw adjacent

Shapes: http://www.antigrain.com/svg/index.htmlSay, initially you have color. Then you draw a white pixel on it with

0.5 opacity (which is equivalent 0.5 of pixel coverage). You will have

(0.5) which is correct. Then you draw another pixel upon it, also with

Opacity=0.5. According to the color blending rules you will have

(0.75), not (1) This is what happens when you draw your

Rectrangles.

The problem can't be easily solved. In the SVG example I use conv_contour to

Dilate all polygons. But this solution isn't perfect and kinda unfair.

But you can't render a multicolor scene in such a way. It's possible only in

Macromedia Flash, but it requires not only another rasterization algorithm, but

Also changing the whole data model. Your data shall be represented not as a set

Of polygons, but as a set of edges with attributes-color on the left and

Color on the right.

This is the color from the original post:

The opacity of the color is 1.0, not 0.5. So what Maxim tried to say is I

Guess something like this: "Then you draw a white pixel on it with 0.5

Pixel coverage (which is equivalent to 0.5 opacity). "

Now, forgive me for my ignorance if this is trivial, I really haven't had

To think about this particular problem, but here's an idea: suppose you

Are doing a flash-like multicolor fill where you know that no polygon

Overlaps another (triangulation, tesselation, whatever). Can the blending

Rule in AGG be changed so that the alpha channel is not interpreted as a

Genuine alpha, but as a coverage percentage instead? So that for example

In this particular case 0.5, 0.5 would be 1.0? This wouldn't work if you

Also want alpha, but the presumption here is that you really don't need it.

Actually, that's an idea, I'm not sure it's doable, but it's seems to be. One

Pixel can be overlapped by many polygons even if the polygons themselves do not

Overlap.

Http://antigrain.com/stuff/multipoly_cover.gif-the central pixel is covered

By 6 triangles. It means that there are 6 different cover values and 6 colors.

And the resulting color must be calculated as the weigted average, where weight

Is coverage. But we should keep a whole list of coverage values for each pixel!

Another solution is to use the alpha channel for coverage values. Suppose we

Have not RGBA, but RGBC color space. Initially all cover values are 0. At a

Time we always operate with 2 colors and two coverage values. We accumulate the

Coverage values (with clipping at 1.0) and calculate the resulting color as the

Weighted average of 2 colors/covers. It looks very familiar, and remainds me

The formulae for alpha blending in plain (non-premultiplied) color space.

Assume for example that you have calculated values

Nom = (w1*a1+w2*a2+w3*a3) / (w1+w2+w3) (the weighted mean so far)

Den = w1+w2+w3 (the sum of weights so far)

Then you can calculate new values

Nom = (nom*den + w4*a4) / (den+w4)

Den + = w4

Expanding those formulas you will get the correct results. That is, you do

Not need to keep a record of all the colors in order to calculate an

Update to the weighted mean, the mean so far plus the weight (kept in

Alpha) is sufficient.
