Abstract
A hardware implemented method for incorporating a border region within an image region is provided. In this hardware implemented method, a position of a pixel along a line within the image region is first computed. The position of the pixel is then compared with an offset value, whereby the offset value defines boundaries of the border region along the line. Thereafter, an image pixel or a color of the border region is selected for display based upon the position of the pixel relative to the offset value. An apparatus and a display controller for incorporating the border region within the image region are also described.
