i thought that subpixel aa smoothed by using the individual channels (r, g, b) of a pixel, not by taking into account the physical shape of a pixel.

- tzahola 8y agoYes. But how do you know if it’s RGB or BGR or GBR etc? Sometimes there’s a fourth subpixel for white too. On Windows there used to be a wizard where you had to choose which one looks better to let the system figure out your display’s subpixel arrangement.
- garmaine 8y agoLook at your screen with a magnifying glass. Then look at your phone's screen. And your TV screen.
- garmaine 8y agoI think we are saying the same thing. A pixel is actually three separate fixed color lights. By shape I meant their layout/arrangement and size.
