Abstract

A method is used to control a liquid crystal panel to display a character having a tilted or curved stroke. The liquid crystal panel includes a plurality of original physical pixels arranged in a matrix array. The method includes dividing each original physical pixel into three color dots of red, green and blue, and forming a plurality of display units. Each display unit includes three horizontally consecutive color dots, and at least one of the plurality of display units includes color dots from two of the original physical pixels. The method includes constructing a clear lattice diagram including the plurality of display units for displaying the tilted or bended stroke, and driving the liquid crystal panel to display the character based on the clear lattice diagram. As such, in the clear lattice diagram, at least two of the display units are vertically adjacent to each other and are horizontally offset by one or two color dots with respect to each other.
