Abstract

Techniques for locating an array of melded colors onto a software application's component window in order to create three-dimensional and multicolor graphics within the component window. The techniques include decoding a first and second color into their respective individual color components, performing a transition operation on the foregoing color components to determine transition colors, dividing a portion of the component window into subcomponents, and locating the transition colors into the subcomponents and, thereby, create three-dimensional and multicolor graphics within the component window.
