Abstract
A method of highlighting a selected object in a 3D scene comprises: executing an off screen rendering software and, responsive thereto, generating a texture image containing an image of the visible parts of a selected object over a background color, and, in response to said texture image, executing an on screen rendering software in combination with a fragment shader software thereby drawing a silhouette of the selected object.
