Abstract
Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, implementing techniques for performing colorization of the control points of vector objects in an image represented by digital data. A representation of a digital image is received. The image includes vector objects, and each of the objects is specified by an assemblage of control points each possessing a color. An image sampling utility, a gradient sampling utility, and a mesh painting utility are provided for interactive editing of the image by the user. The image sampling utility, gradient sampling utility, and mesh painting utility have graphical extents and apply a colorization function to control points within that extent, whereby when the control points have been colorized the graphical representation of the vector object is generated.
