curved and oblique lines
curved and oblique lines
does it exist a way to draw a perfect circle (at least apparently) without any deformation,distorsion etc? Same for any line not horizontal ?
Yeah, the distortions your talking about are due to the pixels, but...
There are ways to minimise those distortions, by means of vector graphics, where instead of an array of dots being recorded, the equation of the curve is recorded, and can then be used to produce graphics of the maximum acurasy available to your output device (printer/screen etc)... This is probably what your looking for, and that's all I know about the subject, so you'll have to research it further yourself/ask someone else for more information...
You could also just up the resolution a fork-load so no-one would notice.

or rectangly shaped things...
Really theres are no perfect circle's in reality at all, so the question of whether you can make it on a computer screen is a moot point...

And no-one would be able to look at the screen without tearing their retina because they can't stop their eyes from rolling uncontrollably towards or away from each other trying to focus on the line....
Or maybe I just have a problem....
The antialiasing is probably the best aproximate solution to your problem... Though it is physically unsolvedable...

PS: And incase no-one said this before, pick a screenmode where the pixels are square, or it will warp... Y:X = 75:100 I think... Isn't 320x240 square pixel mode?
