  • Abstract
    The author describes how he extracted the desirable aspects of window-to-viewpoint transformation while discarding the disquieting ones. He examines the classic window-to-viewport transform, and discusses how it relates to the graphics pipeline he has discussed in the past. He then considers clipping and off-screen viewports.<>
