Let's take squres for simplicty. On of them is

 xxx
 xx

second 
yyy
 yy

You have following layout

......
.xxyy.
.xxyy.
......

Should you get

a)
......
.xxxy.
.xxyy.
......

or

b)
......
.xyyy.
.xxyy.
......

?


It depends on painting order. With left to right order you get b always.
With repaint myself then the neighbours you will get random one,
dependent on which part of screen needs refresh (possibly even mixed
pixels for toolkits that do strict clipping and unfortunate repaint
requests will come)
