The Moiré effect consists of arched distortion lines over
the screen which change when picture width and height are changing. Moiré
only occurs at special resolutions. These interferences are caused by
interactions between the video signal and the shadow mask/CRT pitch. They
mainly appear at line or point patterns. Unfortunately extreme Moiré
patterns occur when the monitor has a very good focus. Good test patterns
are line and point
patterns which are displayed over the whole screen. Moiré patterns
are often most visible if a screen background is set to a pattern of dots
or lines.
