  17.   Ah, do you mean subdividing polygons? That doesn't really have
  18. anything to do with rasterization, though? Not directly. 
  19.  
  20.   Anyway, I haven't tried that yet, since I currently need to support
  21. N-sided polygons, and there's no _trivial_ way of subdividing those,
  22. as far as I know. I'll probably look into it though. BTW: As far as I
  23. can see, it's quite important to choose your splitting position
  24. carefully, since splitting polygons simply in half in general doesn't
  25. give you what you want (it's quick, though).
