Abstract
The present invention provides for the combining of image and graphics data in a high-performance raster graphics workstation. It allows the definition of windows on the screen, the dynamic control of the position of those windows, the magnification factor (integer zoom), and a color translation table, corresponding to each window. All these functions are under user control. Response time of 10 new frame buffers generated per second provides a 'real' time response.
