Patent abstract

Computer-generated images often contain two-dimensional objects that have been converted to three-dimensional objects. The three-dimensional objects appear even more visually appealing when edges of the three-dimensional objects are beveled. A direct insetting process computes a graph of how a shape changes as its edges are swept inwards (or outwards) independently such that the computed graph can be applied to a selected bevel profile to produce an interesting three-dimensional geometry for display.
