This image shows the results of overlaying each of the above transparent PNG images on a background color of #6080A0. Note the gray fringes on the letters of the middle image. This shows how the above images would look when, for example, editing them. The grey and white check pattern would be converted into transparency.
The first is characterized by "ghostlike" grey blobs perceived at the intersections of a white (or light-colored) grid on a black background. The grey blobs disappear when looking directly at an intersection. The second is constructed by superimposing white discs on the intersections of orthogonal gray bars on a black background.
Vector-based devices, such as the vector CRT and the pen plotter, directly control a drawing mechanism to produce geometric shapes. Since vector display devices can define a line by dealing with just two points (that is, the coordinates of each end of the line), the device can reduce the total amount of data it must deal with by organizing the ...
Barrier-grid animation or picket-fence animation is an animation effect created by moving a striped transparent overlay across an interlaced image. The barrier-grid technique originated in the late 1890s, overlapping with the development of parallax stereography (Relièphographie) for 3D autostereograms. The technique has also been used for ...
Color, width and pattern (such as dashed or dotted) for rendering lines; Colors, patterns, and gradients for filling shapes; Bitmap image data (either embedded or in an external file) along with scale and position information; Text to be rendered (along with size, position, orientation, color, and font)
One approach is to color the vertices (with two colors, e.g., black and white) and require that adjacent tiles have matching vertices. [32] Another is to use a pattern of circular arcs (as shown above left in green and red) to constrain the placement of tiles: when two tiles share an edge in a tiling, the patterns must match at these edges. [21]
Flat art developed out of the rise of vector graphic programs, and a nostalgia for mid-century modern illustration. [3] It began to trend in editorial illustration and especially the tech industry, which relied on simple, scalable illustrations to fill white space and add character to apps and web pages. [ 1 ]
The Ben Day process is a printing and photoengraving technique for producing areas of gray or (with four-color printing) various colors by using fine patterns of ink on the paper. It was developed in 1879 [ 1 ] by illustrator and printer Benjamin Henry Day Jr. (son of 19th-century publisher Benjamin Henry Day ). [ 2 ]
