The Graphics 2D package of modules works by creating frames of graphics - essentially a description of how various video frames, images and text should be composited on-screen, along with all the resources required to build the graphics scene. In this way, all graphical manipulations happen prior to any final rendering, ensuring that multiple graphics operations could be performed by multiple modules without invoking a chain of resource-hungry rendering procedures. Therefore, at any stage where rendering to video is required, the Renderer module provides a fast and simple way of converting a frame of graphics into a single frame of video. The Renderer uses OpenGL for the rendering process, and is therefore capable of utilising hardware acceleration during the rendering process.
