This part of the text hasn't changed since we first went to CR.
No, I'm not going to draw pictures for you. Please use your imagination instead:
- for color transitions, a sudden color change vs. conical gradient
- for style renderings, the transition of dots to solid or the
transition of double to solid. A sharp, diagonal transition at
the corner looks really bad for dots to solid, because a circular
dot doesn't extend to the corner -- this is why Zack's suggested
rendering has the solid border take up the whole corner. A curved
transition from double to solid could be done gradually rather
than suddenly.
