  20             Multisampling samples a pixel multiple times at various
  21             implementation-dependent subpixel locations to generate antialiasing
  22             effects.  Multisampling transparently antialiases points, lines, polygons,
  23             and images if it is enabled.
  24         </p><p>
  25             <em class="parameter"><code>value</code></em> is used in constructing a temporary mask used in determining which
  26             samples will be used in resolving the final fragment color.  This mask is
  27             bitwise-anded with the coverage mask generated from the multisampling
  28             computation.  If the <em class="parameter"><code>invert</code></em> flag is set, the temporary mask is inverted
  29             (all bits flipped) and then the bitwise-and is computed.
  30         </p><p>
  31             If an implementation does not have any multisample buffers available, or
  32             multisampling is disabled, rasterization occurs with only a single sample
  33             computing a pixel's final RGB color.
  34         </p><p>
  35             Provided an implementation supports multisample buffers, and multisampling
  36             is enabled, then a pixel's final color is generated by combining several
  37             samples per pixel.  Each sample contains color, depth, and stencil
  38             information, allowing those operations to be performed on each sample.
