Abstract
A computer system and method removes or changes graphic content not discernable from the rendering tree stored in memory. The content modified depends on its redraw area in a physical monitor or a pane, which is contained within a layout in a frame. One or more frames are defined as part of a logical monitor. A physical monitor may have one or more logical monitors. Each redraw area is determined and graphic content is modified with different graphic having a memory use less than the original graphic that is determined not to be discernable based on the resolution and zoom information.
