The smoothing of jagged edges on a displayed shaped by modifying the transparencies of individual pixels along the shape's edge.

Where did you notice the presence of the antialiasing filter?

I noticed word "antialiasing" in an article on developing software for OpenOffice.org, and wanted to know what it meant. So I looked it up online.


What is mean of antialiasing in computer graphics?

Basicley, it can improve or deprove the quality of 3d graphics. if your computer sucks, you can turn down antialiasing so it runs faster if your computer has a good graphics card and memory, you can turn it up so it looks better.


Can a i3 run RuneScape?

Intel i3 core can run Runescape, unfortunately however, antialiasing does not work with i3 graphics.


What is pixel phasing?

Pixel phasing is an antialiasing technique, stair steps are smoothed out by moving the electron beam to more nearly approximate positions specified by the object geometry.


What are the disadvantage of bresenham's circle drawing algorithm?

The main advantage of Bresenham's algorithm is speed. The disadvantage of such a simple algorithm is that it is meant for basic line drawing. The "advanced" topic of antialiasing isn't part of Bresenham's algorithm, so to draw smooth lines, you'd want to look into a different algorithm.


How can you fix lag on Skyrim for the PC?

Try downloading the performance mod and updating all your drivers oh and disable vsync through the skyrim.ini, disable antialiasing too.


A file name with extension .bmp is what type of file?

Yes, its a Bitmap image File. Which covers .jpg .png .gif .tiff These images are all made up of a series of squares and the staircase effect is removed by antialiasing.


How do you get rid of the jaggies in fsx. nvidia gts 250 set at 16Q antialias and 6 ansiotropic. windows 7. AMD quad. Still have minor jaggies?

Antialiasing is a technique where hard edges of lines which appear as jagged are smoothed out using samples of colour from the surrounding area to the line. The greater the sample size the more 'fuzzed' the line becomes. It relies on two parameters the first being the sample size, the second being the overall resolution of the image. Therefore increase the screen resolution. If this doesnt satisfy you then you are at the limits of what the effect can provide.


What does a video board do?

The graphics card is the component used to display images to your monitor. It is used more than just for games. Without the graphics card, there is no output to your monitor. Back in the old days, we used to call these things "video cards", which made it more obvious as to what these things do.Now different graphics cards have different capabilities. Some graphics cards, as an example, cannot support games that uses DirectX8 and above. Some graphics cards support multiple monitors; others do not. Some graphics cards can do full-scene antialiasing; others do not. The capabilities of the different cards can vary; and how well they do it also varies.


What are currently the best Nvidia video cards for gaming?

The Geforce 8 series and the best is the Nvida Geforce 8800 Ultra (768 MB of memory, 384-bit, 103.7 GB/second of bandwidth). If you think to buy one buy a Nvidia, are better, faster and cheapest than others (incluiding Ati Radeon). I Don't know how old the answer before mine was but it is clearly out of date. The best Nvidia graphics card out right now Jan 2011 is the Geforce GTX 580. For specs look it up their website. Runs any visuals at 1980x 1280x, x16 antialiasing, highest setting, with over 90 frames per second. (smooth frames per second is 30 to 40)


Is there any graphic downgrades for skyrim a downgrade that would make the graphic quality level of the game lower than the lowest possible graphic settings on the standard version?

The lowest settings for Skyrim are quite low and most computers can play them. If you find that you are unable to play, your computer is very outdated and you need to upgrade. Alternatively, you can switch off certain graphic functions such as triple buffering, antialiasing, reflections, environment clipping distance, grass and tree visibility, water and sky visibility or a variety of changes on your graphic card that improves quality. Set everything to performance and kill any background applications. Defrag your hard drive and use a program to clean your registry. All of these factors weigh into game performance.


What is are advatages and disadvatages of bresenham's line algorithm?

1. High accuracy. Comparing to Basic Incremental algorithm (especially if the slope were > 1.) 2. High speed. Comparing to Digital Differenmtial algorithm. 3. Draws the line between any two points. Comparing to Basic Incremental algorithm which can't draw if x0 > x1 ( the format is: (x0, y0), (x1, y1). )
