1. A method of modifying object geometry comprising:

  • receiving one or more information attributes to be applied to an object;

    determining if the one or more information attributes are in contention with one or more geometry attributes of the object; and

    when the one or more information attributes are in contention with the one or more geometry attributes, modifying the one or more geometry attributes to reduce the contention with the one or more information attributes,wherein the geometry attribute is a visible defined geometric space on a display and the information attribute is related to data presented within the visible geometric space; and

    combining the modified geometry attributes and the information attributes to form a texture map.
