Abstract
Techniques for graphics processing using multiple primitives are described. Generally, graphical elements displayed on a computing device can be constructed from multiple primitives. In at least some embodiments, techniques can combine multiple primitives for processing. For example, overlap of a primitive with another primitive can be detected. The primitives can be processed together for display in a pixel region, e.g., as a single primitive. The primitives can be processed by a graphics processor, such as by blending the primitives, applying visual effects to the primitives, and so on. The processed primitives can be written to memory such that the processed primitives can be accessed and displayed by a display device.
