Palette management for display of regular graphic objects

摘要

A system and method are provided for implementing palette management for displaying regular graphic objects on a video monitor. A plurality of sets of three-dimensional color components for each of a plurality of gradients is determined. Each of the plurality of sets of three-dimensional color components is stored in a respective one of a plurality of color look up tables. A processor determines which one of the plurality of color look up tables to display for any given scan line on the video monitor. A selected one of the plurality of sets of three-dimensional color components is retrieved from one of the plurality of color look up tables. Using the selected one of the plurality of sets of three-dimensional color components, the video monitor is caused to illuminate at least one pixel of the respective scan line.
