Abstract:
1. A method of presenting on a presentation device a mark modeling a contact area between an implement surface and a marking surface, the method comprising: receiving a marking event that specifies a tilt measurement of a tilt sensitive input device; determining a geometry of the mark based on the tilt measurement, wherein the determined geometry comprises a size and shape of the mark; determining an intensity distribution within the determined geometry of the mark based on the tilt measurement, the intensity distribution defining a plurality of different values of intensity at respective different locations within the determined geometry of the mark; presenting the mark having the determined geometry and intensity distribution via the presentation device; and mapping the geometry of the mark to an impression bitmap with a bitmap size, wherein the bitmap size is a maximum bitmap size multiplied by a scale factor, wherein the scale factor varies based on the tip geometry and tilt angle measurement.
