Fractal-generating software was rewritten to make use of multi-threaded processing. Subsequently, the adoption of graphics processing units in computers has greatly increased the speed of rendering and allowed for real-time changes to parameters that were previously impossible due to render delay.
A couple fractals, like the Burning ship and Perpendicular Mandelbrot fractals, have very stretched areas that require stretching of one's own to view. However, the fork has moved the Skew feature to Transformations. Fractals can be stretched by minimizing the Kalles Fraktaler window, hitting CTRL + T, and using right-click to stretch the fractal.
While an optimally packed fractal appears only for a defined value of r, i.e., r opt, it is possible to play the chaos game using other values as well.If r>1 (the point x k+1 jumps at a greater distance than the distance between the point x k and the vertex v), the generated figure extends outside the initial polygon.

The usage of the word "gasket" to refer to the Sierpiński triangle refers to gaskets such as are found in motors, and which sometimes feature a series of holes of decreasing size, similar to the fractal; this usage was coined by Benoit Mandelbrot, who thought the fractal looked similar to "the part that prevents leaks in motors".

A Mandelbrot fractal with Fractint's colour palette editor (version 20.0 in DOSBOX 0.72) One portion of the Mandelbrot set at extreme magnification, showing how the set contains near copies of itself Fractint originally appeared in 1988 as FRACT386, a computer program for rendering fractals very quickly on the Intel 80386 processor using ...
Ultra Fractal is a fractal generation and rendering software application. The program was the first publicly available fractal software which featured layering methods previously only found in image editing software. [1] Because of this, the program has become popular for use in the creation of fractal art.
Sierpiński Carpet - Infinite perimeter and zero area Mandelbrot set at islands The Mandelbrot set: its boundary is a fractal curve with Hausdorff dimension 2. (Note that the colored sections of the image are not actually part of the Mandelbrot Set, but rather they are based on how quickly the function that produces it diverges.)
IFS fractals are more related to set theory than fractal geometry. [1] They were introduced in 1981. IFS fractals, as they are normally called, can be of any number of dimensions, but are commonly computed and drawn in 2D. The fractal is made up of the union of several copies of itself, each copy being transformed by a function (hence "function ...
