Firefox uses bilinear filtering and chrome uses nearest neighbor rounding the dx and dy values. This can be tested by rendering an image at 0.0, 0.1, etc to 1.0. There should probably be a defined operation that should occur or there should be a way to define which one the user wants. I prefer nearest neighbor, but I know not everyone likes pixel snapping. Currently the only way to get similar behavior in both browsers is to wrap dx and dy in Math.round before passing them to drawImage, but that gets rid of the bilinear filtering that users might want. 34387 1 ian 2010-04-02 06:16:55 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment. If you are satisfied with this response, please change the state of this bug to CLOSED. If you have additional information and would like the editor to reconsider, please reopen this bug. If you would like to escalate the issue to the full HTML Working Group, please add the TrackerRequest keyword to this bug, and suggest title and text for the tracker issue; or you may create a tracker issue yourself, if you are able to do so. For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Rejected Change Description: no spec change Rationale: This is a quality of implementation issue. There are many ways to handle this, such as using a higher-resolution backing store than the rendering needs, or using approximations, or shipping a higher-resolution monitor to the user. I do not think this is something the spec should mandate one way or the other.
