Artifacts

Hi all!

I have this question for years....
Create something, like ball (2sided), make a single vertex in the center, select it(so you have the selection box) and then look at selection(the single vertex) and zoom in again and again and see the results. If you zoom for a long watch the selection box how it looks like, and of cource how the ball seems. Why this? I have this question because I am developing my own graphic library...

About the vertex and the selection box: wrong. Just don't put it in the center. Put it anywhere else you want, and inside the ball so you can see the results.

It doesn't bothers me. I 'm just curious why is this happening. As I have realized it seems somehow like the playstation one (the trembling polygons).....
