Abstract

A computer graphics system comprising apparatus for drawing quadrilateral images on an output display when furnished the vertices of the quadrilateral, apparatus for providing width values for each end of a line to bedisplayed on an output display which width values are indirectly related to the depth of the ends of the line from the viewer, and apparatus for utililizing thewidth values to determine vertices of a line to be drawn by the apparatus for drawing a quadrilateral image.
