Patent ID: 8194070

Claim:
A method for rendering a graphics object on a display of a wireless device, the method comprising: receiving, at a receiver of the wireless device, graphics object data defining the graphics object in a binary format, the graphics object data in the binary format being created by converting the graphics object data from a path format, the path format including path elements that are each associated with a fill style and define one or more polygon shapes, each polygon shape at least partially filled with the associated fill style, the path elements collectively defining the graphics object, the conversion from the path format to the binary format including redefining the polygon shapes defined by the path elements as groups of triangles and combining at least some triangles in the groups of triangles into further polygon shapes that fall within complexity thresholds based on resources available on the wireless device; interpreting, by a processor of the wireless device, the graphics object data in the binary format to generate an image representative of the graphics object; and rendering the generated image representative of the graphics object on the display of the wireless device.
